Hello! This commit causes a regression on my system. [1] In summary, during plasma's start-up the desktop background/wallpaper is initially displayed, but as soon as kscreen sets up the displays there are a number of flickers and the wallpaper is replaced with black background. I can reproduce this issue relatively reliably with compositing switched off. I was able to resolve this issue locally by reverting this commit on my system, and I verified that the reverted commit resolves the aforementioned regression. I found this commit by inspecting the git history. Would it be possible to revert and/or rework this commit? Thank you!
