my thought was going in the direction of:
* ksplashqml uses fullscreen shell protocol with "system" compositor
* kwin has time to startup and takes over the fullscreen shell once everything is setup
if ksplashqml connects to KWin, the startup of KWin becomes important while otherwise it would just not matter. We want flicker free startup and using the "system" compositor's fullscreen shell might be the solution to it.
