On the one hand that means future Kubuntus (for a while) won't have remote desktop, remote UI commands, global hotkeys, nor other such useful features. Or, heck, won't have accessibility. On the other hand, from the progress I've seen KDE are among the better positioned to change that, so who knows. Prepping for a Kubuntu LTS?
~~On the third hand, it's still Ubuntu. The Wayland fixes are probably going to be shipped as snaps for the Pro version.~~
the problem now is that while kde and gnome do have most of those things on wayland, it's all bespoke. there are no universal wayland remote desktop systems or accessibility pushes, just "the gnome one" and "the kde one".
it's fragmenting the desktop.
Unfortunately, that's by design. Mir was the display server that tried to combat that exact problem, and we burned it at the stake.
Gotta love that about FOSS communities. Every time someone tries to do something interesting, we burn them at the stake. It's a classic of the Mozilla fandom, for example.
Ironically, everyone hated it because they thought it would cause fragmentation.
