The attachment in my previous comment was using cover and flip switchers which work fine. 
Running the command again after switching back to breeze and informative switchers I've got these differences:
$ sdiff -s 20170212_qdbus_org.kde.KWin_supportInformation.log 20170212_qdbus_org.kde.KWin_supportInformation_with_breeze_and_informative_switchers.log

> OpenGL platform interface: EGL

Egl is not supported on X11, especially not on Intel hardware. It is just too broken. Given that we removed support from it in the configuration module. Please switch back to GLX by manually editing the config file. It is sufficient to just delete the line about EGL and restart the session.

I'm assuming from the experience we had with EGL on Intel that this is the reason for the problem. If it still happens on GLX, please attach a new output of supportInformation and reopen the bug.

That worked, thanks so much!
