Definitely something we want to support. There are two things we need here:
1. Implement the ability for two outputs to be seen as one screen. This should
be pretty easy and quick to do once
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/merge_requests/808 and
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/merge_requests/844 are in and is something
I've been working towards. Most tiled monitors send information about their
tiling and the kernel passes it down to us so they will work automatically.

If your monitor is recognized as two in X as well then your monitor probably
doesn't announce its tiling though, so once 1 is done we'll also need

2. Add an option to kscreen-doctor that allows you to configure 1 even if the
monitor doesn't announce itself as a single monitor, or if you want to setup
something like Eyefinity. This should ideally be exposed in the system
settings, too, even though I could see that needing a bunch of changes in the
UI to be made nice.

While I don't think you can help for 1 (most of the code is already written),
for 2 we'll need to extend the Plasma specific outputdevice and
outputmanagement wayland protocols, implement and use it with a bunch of
patches (see https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/merge_requests/846 for a
simpler example).
To discuss the specifics an issue for KWin or a chat program would probably be
better than the bug tracker though :)
