A Linux-system is a huge mosaic of several hundreds or more pieces of software
provided by probably as many individual projects (communities of developers). 
There is no central authority that can set/enforce priorities or order certain
devs to get out of slo-mo mode and finally provide what others urgently need.  

By making Wayland the default for Plasma-6 instead of sticking with X11 (and
publicly explaining why), KDE unfortunately gave away the only leverage they
had in this affair.
