In my use case, it was related the user wanting a higher quality
calibrated
monitor on the right hand side to examine and process photographic
samples of
products, while the left was used to set up layouts and run usual
productivity
apps.

When you logout and return to the console from which you launched
wayland,
isn't there some output showing what was running and any problems
with it?
Nothing that (at the time) made any sense to me. What was happening is
that I was inadvertently launching startplasma-wayland with xorg
running, so I can see KWin getting confused. Now that I understand
that, I can try again and see if the output actually gives any hint(s)
I missed.
