This could be a Wayland issue but previously when I used X it would differentiate between the different windows. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. (this is just one example) open konsole 2. use "detect window properties", set to some size and "apply initially" 3. in konsole open multiple tabs, go to close konsole, popup shows up with "are you sure" type dialog. note it will also be the same size as the main konsole window 4. use "detect window properties" on the popup, "window types" and "window role" don't detect anything. OBSERVED RESULT popup is applied the same settings EXPECTED RESULT able to differentiate between the different window role/types.

Wayland windows return an empty string for windowRole() https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/blob/master/src/waylandwindow.cpp?ref_type=heads#L118 Is the concept of "window role" completely deprecated on Wayland? If so, we should find some alternative property to match different kinds of windows
> Is the concept of "window role" completely deprecated on Wayland? It's just not a thing. https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/merge_requests/238 will provide something similar.
