I brought this matter up a few weeks ago, and the response is that Wayland _shouldn't_ mulch any of your settings - but it might. KDE on Wayland in Debian has a lot of rough edges and should be considered beta. I've found I've needed to work around crashes, quirks and missing features. It's possible that a KDE app may change a setting and X won't know how to read it. Some things that work in X11 don't in Wayland and vice-versa.
