When these apps use client-side decorations, I doubt they support shading. If
they are configured to use server-side decorations, and shading works, isn't
that most likely because they use XWayland? And if you want all apps to support
shading, can't you set some environment variables so that all apps use
XWayland? I still use X11, so I haven't tried this, but AFAIUI this bug only
affects native Wayland windows, and if I were to switch to kwin-wayland, making
apps use it through XWayland is what I'd try to keep shading work.
