Something you might want to look into as a workaround: Weston has an RDP
backend (uses FreeRDP)[1]. In theory you could run that (using the kiosk shell
to be totally unobtrusive), and run the Plasma session nested inside that.
The Plasma session did work nested in Weston's (default) DRM backend; I tried
its VNC backend but could not get it to work at all; I did not try the RDP
backend, but if it works at all it should work for this technique.
(I did have success nesting Plasma inside Cage, and using WayVNC. The Plasma
session works well, though Firefox causes some input dysfunction.)
Not wishing to drag this offtopic but thought the info might be helpful.
