--- Comment #1 from Nate Graham <nate at kde.org> ---
Oh jeez. I suppose this is because we adjusted the transparency settings in the
Breeze Plasma theme which lives in Frameworks, but the feature it supports is
only in Plasma 5.22. So people using Plasma 5.21 with the latest Frameworks
(i.e. all users of Arch-based distros and openSUSE Tumbleweed) now see a higher
level of transparency when windows are maximized than is intended.

Frameworks 5.80 has not actually been released yet, so we have 4 days to revert
it and prevent releasing the bug to users.

We could revert and re-commit it in the Frameworks version that Plasma 5.22
depends on (5.82). This would re-introduce the bug for one month, since the
Frameworks dependency version is typically released a month before the Plasma
version it supports.

Or we could revert the change and only re-add it to the version of Frameworks
that's aligned with Plasma 5.22's release date (5.83). This would technically
break the dependency though. Perhaps we could change Plasma's Frameworks
dependency version to 5.23.

Regardless, I really really really hate how the Plasma Breeze theme lives in
Frameworks. For KF6, we've gotta move it out and put in a
Plasma-release-schedule-aligned repo.
