This is the one reason why I'm having to stick to X11 right now: Everything
else works almost perfectly on Wayland except for the monitor! I have one
screen which I don't need to unplug at runtime... however I want it to go into
standby after 5 minutes of inactivity, to reduce wear and most importantly my
electricity consumption. If I were to use Wayland I'd have to keep my monitor
on all the time, for a computer I leave powered on overnight: I can't throw
money away on pointless electricity usage.

So I second: PLEASE fix this in the next Plasma release! Plasma Wayland has
been around for years, yet in such a long time something as basic as monitor
standby couldn't be safely implemented? Part of the fix in the display stack
was done in 5.22, the crash was reduced but is still there and the monitor
still wakes up right after going to sleep. Test via DisplayPort cable if
possible, the issue may still be related this connection more.
