The compositor doesn't need to synchronize with the client when moving
windows, except cases like unmaximizing the window. It's needed only
when resizing to avoid overwhelming the client with configure notify events.
The accessibility kcm can be used to enable/disable the shake cursor
plugin and change its other parameters, so hide it in the desktop
effects kcm by default.
Adds whitespace between documented members of the header file.
Currently the members are all bunched together, making it difficult to
read as one flows directly into the next. This change adds a newline
between each member, making it easier to read.
Allow the creation of screen edges bordering two screens. This allows
panels in auto-hide/dodge-windows mode to work when the panel is
positioned between two edges.
Don't change the X11 behavior since edge barrier is not supported on
X11, without which it is virtually impossible to exactly position the
cursor on the pixel to activate the edge.
BUG: 351175
Allow users to configure a virtual edge barrier between screens.
The pointer will only cross over to the other screen after the distance
travelled surpasses edgeBarrier.
Reduce the speed during interactive moveresize, at edges that trigger,
and at the corner.
Only supports wayland. Doesn't have X11 support since it is far too
complicated there.

A target mobile DPI of 135 is rather low and results in excessively
large scale factors, so everything is too big.. Let's raise it a
little bit to improve the default level of information density on
these devices that are designed to be held close to the face.
This has the effect of changing the calculated default scale factor for
the following devices:
| Device | Device DPI | Old scale factor | New scale factor |
| ---------- | ---------- | ---------------- | ---------------- |
| Steam Deck | 204 | 1.5 | 1.25 |
| PinePhone | 268 | 2.0 | 1.75 |
| OnePlus | 388 | 3.0 | 2.5 |
Devices are taken from the autotest data found at

The autohidden panels "blink" because this effect animates their opacity.
The dock windows are animated because, as the comment says, the old effect
animated almost every window.
Conceptually, animating docks doesn't align with the purpose of this effect.
Wayland has a design philosophy of prohibiting keyloggers, which is
sane. However X11 did not, and a lot of X11 apps were developed with the
expectation of being able to sniff keyboard events to handle global
shortcuts. When such apps are run in a Wayland session under XWayland,
these features break.
Historically we have prohibited this in the name of security. In Plasma
5.27, we gave users a KCM they can use to choose their preferred balance
of security and unbreaking XWayland apps with global shortcuts. But we
still defaulted to total 100% security, at the expense of breaking these
apps by default.
However today we have a compromise that unbreaks them 99% of the time
while not meaningfully reducing security: we can have KWin only prohibit
XWayland apps from reading alphanumeric key events that don't have a
modifier key pressed at the same time. This still prevents those apps
from acting as keyloggers and reading your password or all the text you
type, but does allow those apps that have a legitimate need to read key
events for global shortcuts do so, because global shortcuts will involve
modifier keys being held down.
Due to the way the security modes work, making this change will also
allow XWayland apps to read non-alphanumeric keystrokes without any
modifiers being held down, but that's also fine for security since you
can't use any of those keys to type text or passwords.
NET::OnAllDesktops is a special desktop number (-1), desktopForX11Id will not return a desktop for it
When all desktops are requested pass an empty desktop list, the following code will handle it appropriately
