Concerning KF5: there is currently only 1 person who could check if these modifications *compile* and possibly if a well-written test succeeds - Marko.
It is my understanding that improving existing features (like OS X support) falls in the category of bug fixes according to Albert Astals's definitions. If this gets committed to an OS X specific branch that's fine with me too.

Considering the test: I don't think the test application does async things and I'm not even sure if it really has an event loop. But you're right, using sleep is a very quick hack that I ought to have replaced by something using QTimer or equivalent. Note however that this is an addition to an existing test case from KWindowSystem; where are the auto-tests that you mention?
