I know this is probably not the right place to ask and I'm fine if a
moderator hides this as spam or off-topic, but I'd appreciate if someone
can point me in the right direction or tell me if this is even possible.

I’m porting a JPEGView feature (Windows image viewer) to qimgv: when you
zoom in/out, the app window resizes to match the image size, there's a
little more into it, but that's the general idea.

On X11 everything works perfectly but on Wayland, I can resize the
window, but it always grows/shrinks from the top-left corner rather than
from the center. I haven’t found a way to recenter the window or make it
expand from its center.

I found this line in Nate Graham’s canned responses about Wayland:
> Native Wayland windows are not allowed to determine where to place themselves 
> on screen at all; the compositor does this.

My questions are:
Is there truly no way for a client to move a window or control the “resize 
origin” (e.g., expand from center)?
If not, would this require a feature request in KWin, or a new Wayland protocol 
or portal?

Thanks for any guidance.
