SUMMARY In the past, I experienced HDR not functioning correctly. Thankfully this issue has been fixed as far as I can tell, but back when I faced this issue, it would have been significantly easier to fix if I were able to just disable HDR through the x11 desktop settings menu. Essentially if something goes wrong with wayland desktop settings it would be helpful if, in a different tab for instances, I can alter the settings through x11 desktop if i ever need to use x11 as a fallback. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Go into x11 2. Open settings OBSERVED RESULT Wayland settings are missing. EXPECTED RESULT The ability to change wayland desktop settings.

Thoughts, KWin folks?
Not a Kwin dev, but this seems like the wrong approach to me. At best this is only a temporary solution at the worst this just hides the real problem. Not every Distro still ships X11. Notably the atomic distros don't ship x11 (I believe). It is also unknown for how long other distros will ship X11. So this solution will only work for some people who knows for how long?
We're not going to expose settings that have no effect on the current platform. Some sort of "recovery mode" that disables all the things is something planned.
