(I wish I could edit comments, sorry for the double comment)

If these are truly the only two options, is there a way this could be disabled
for mixed-DPI displays? It makes for a pretty bad user experience if a user
say, opens Steam or any of the other still primarily X11 applications (Electron
apps and some Flatpaks) and they are scaled incorrectly on one monitor but not
their others. You could make the argument that if they have to open their
display settings to scale a display anyway, then it might not matter, but an
average user will probably not know how to distinguish the options no matter
how they are worded, and they may skip over it and assume that the defaults are
fine. Heck, I would wager a lot of regular folks won't even know what X11
means.

Making the previous behaviour the default may not be quite right either, as I
am sure there are many users without a mixed-DPI setup. So if possible,
changing the default option depending on the user's setup would be better than
changing the default for everyone. But I'm sure this idea of changing the
default for mixed-DPI users is not without downsides I might not be aware of.

I'm aware Plasma Wayland still isn't ready for all users yet. I've been using
it for almost a full year now and hats off to the Plasma team for the massive
strides that are being made. For many users, X11 is still the way to go, but
for users like myself who need fractional display scaling, adaptive sync and
high refresh rate support we don't really have much of a choice - Not to
mention the performance gains in several games from Plasma Wayland. Hence why I
make so many bug reports relating to Wayland, it's my daily driver and I want
to get the most out of it :)
