FWIW, X11 isn't sufficient for Wayland users but Vim isn't ready yet.

  $ pkg install cage vim
  $ GDK_BACKEND=wayland cage -d gvim
  E233: cannot open display

vim-8.2.1943/src/gui_gtk_x11.c:
  #if GTK_CHECK_VERSION(3,10,0)
      // Vim currently assumes that Gtk means X11, so it cannot use native Gtk
      // support for other backends such as Wayland.
      gdk_set_allowed_backends ("x11");
  #endif
