Do you mean the desktop effect? The layout switching works fine there.

Not yet sure how to tell if the application is using Wayland or XWayland. I've
tried Dolphin, and it also works fine. ("About Dolphin" window says it's using
wayland)

> 3. Once with a XWayland application focused
I've tried several GTK applications (with KWin 5.7.3; assuming they use
XWayland), like Inkscape or Gimp; their behavior is wrong. Same for Yakuake (it
says "The xcb windowing system" in the "About" dialog).

> 4. Once with a GTK/Wayland (only supported on KWin master) focused
I've just tried rebuilding KWin from master ("kwin_wayland --version" now says
"kwin 5.7.90"), restarted and checked gimp and inkscape, they are still
affected. 
But I'm still not sure if they were using XWayland or ran natively now.

Well, there is a proposed patch which does the thing. I was just hoping that
this problem will disappear on Wayland. Or is xkbcommon related to Wayland too?
