Thanks for testing! I've added your results to upstream's Google
spreadsheet of tested games/programs.

libsdl2-2.0-0 Depends on libdecor-0-0, which Recommends
libdecor-0-plugin-1-cairo (or another compatible plugin, but currently
there are none in Debian).
If you install the recommended package then you should get some simplistic
client-side window decorations (black rectangular titlebar, white bold
text, maximize/minimize/close icons light up in various colours on
mouseover) when running in a native Wayland environment like GNOME that
prefers client-side decorations.
If SDL 2 ever starts defaulting to native Wayland then I might give it
a direct Recommends on a libdecor plugin as a heavier hint that users
should really install one, but in practice that's unlikely to happen.
(SDL 3 in experimental does default to native Wayland, though.)
