One thing to keep in mind: Not every distribution is going to drop Plasma 5.21
just because 5.22 is out. In Gentoo e.g., we have a habit of keeping the latest
Plasma 5.xx.5 release in stable branch until the next Plasma .5 is ready.
During that time, new Frameworks versions may be stabilised once or twice.

Now we have stable: Plasma 5.20.5 / Frameworks 5.77 / Release Service 20.08.3.
Frameworks 5.80 would normally be scheduled for stabilisation 30 days from now,
then likely either 5.82/83, 5.85/86... so for a brief time maybe Plasma 5.21.5
will be paired with even Frameworks 5.85 in stable for our users, until 5.22.5
is ready.

And during all that time stable users may decide to unmask any unstable
Frameworks version in between, because that is something they can easily do
(even if they lose stable support ofc).

Long story short, this means we will likely need to backport the adaptive panel
opacity support to Plasma 5.21.5 unless we want to break with our usual
schedule or just risk some users may end up with this bug by their own choice
(of mixing a stable Plasma with unstable Frameworks).
