Hi David!

I have tried to reproduce this issue on different systems, including the latest KDE neon Testing, but was unable to make the window decorations disappear.
Plastik and other window decorations work fine across different systems.

Could you please check whether this is still an issue for you?
If so, please provide more details on your setup.

I will also re-file this bug under kwin -> decorations.
