The compositor shouldn't be subject to heavy work, it's just a surface that 
needs to be moved, but I'm speaking with Green Island in mind i don't know 
other compositors.
That said I don't mind removing this method at all, but I suspect the 
org_kde_plasma_surface.set_position request will need global coordinates.
Can anyone confirm that?

For the same reason above, but Plasma will probably need to set the scvreen 
edge only for panels or surfaces that it knows about.
Did I get it right?
In that case these methods should be moved to PlasmaSurface as 
setGlobalPosition.

I'm afraid the kwin takeover will result in the splash suddenly disappearing 
without transition (ie fade-out), a session compositor instead maps the splash 
leaving the other layers below and can do a smooth transition when the surface 
is unmapped. There's also the desktop_ready request that a session compositor 
can use should it need even more control.
With fullscreen-shell a wl_output is still needed and the reason for this 
method was to take a wl_output from a QScreen which is the same problem we face 
for wl_surface.
