ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I noticed there was no bug attached to this issue on this page https://community.kde.org/Plasma/Wayland_Showstoppers
Comment 1 David Edmundson 2022-07-07 15:17:22 UTC 
This is the expected behaviour at this point in time.
Comment 2 Damian Kaczmarek 2022-07-07 16:15:04 UTC 
This is listed as a Plasma/Showstopper https://community.kde.org/Plasma/Wayland_Showstoppers under "KWin/compositing/window management
". If this is expected behavior perhaps somebody should edit it out?
