  Status quo, a state of no art ;) This is undoubtedly because neither server nor WM (the more logical candidate) implemented the feature, which in turns is undoubtedly because it was considered too expensive and generally unnecessary.
  
  So there's a status quo, and there are applications that *can* work around it. So what? The proposed KWin feature here is optional; users who activate it can disable the corresponding feature in applications that offer one.

  KWin also provides a Wayland compositor; a colour correction plugin for KWin *could* thus work its magic under Wayland too.
