Comment 1 David Pérez 2024-10-07 06:39:37 UTC 
I use the shift + drag window to place it into a tile.
Comment 2 David Pérez 2024-11-11 08:57:18 UTC 
A workaround is to turn the window into full screen.
Comment 3 Jakob Petsovits 2024-12-18 05:55:57 UTC 
KWin master from around 2024-12-16 (i.e. pre-beta 6.3). Can reproduce.

What's funny is that after the window restores to its regular, non-custom-tiled size, Shift+drag into the same custom tile won't resize it to the custom tile rectangle anymore. I need to first Shift+drag it to a different tile, *then* I can Shift+drag it back to my original one. This indicates that the underlying state still has the custom tile stored in some way, and decided not to do anything about Shift+drag because it's already tiled there. Except it isn't in practice.
