This appears to be broken. KDE wallpaper is now solid grey, and journal
shows:

Jul 22 21:41:19 fedora plasma-setup[2022]: QImageIOHandler: Rejecting
image as it exceeds the current allocation limit of 256 megabytes

The image file is huge (12800x12800)

The fix is now available on
https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2026-4500993c9c

The image file got resized to 8192x8192 and should load faster.
KDE still cannot load this. We still get blank grey backgrounds. In the
journal, I see:

Jul 23 13:44:07 fedora plasma-login-wallpaper[2636]: The PlasmaWindowManagement 
protocol hasn't activated in time. The client possibly got denied by kwin? 
Check kwin output.
Jul 23 13:44:07 fedora plasma-login-wallpaper[2636]: Unexpected event 1 instead 
of JXL_DEC_FULL_IMAGE
Jul 23 13:44:07 fedora plasma-login-wallpaper[2636]: Unexpected event 1 instead 
of JXL_DEC_FULL_IMAGE

Those "Unexpected event 1 instead of JXL_DEC_FULL_IMAGE" messages seem
to show up multiple times, every time anything (plasma-login-manager or
the desktop) attempts to load the wallpaper. There are 8 instances of
that message total.

It turned out KDE Plasma will fail to properly render a lossy JPEG XL wallpaper with an embedded color profile.

For the test, I shrank the wallpaper to a reasonable 5120 × 5120 size and convert the PNG to lossless JPEG XL format via "cjxl -e 1 -d 0" command. According to the test run on GNOME Boxed F44 KDE edition, the wallpaper renders as expected. The loading time should be smaller for low powered devices despite a 10+ Mib size.
