on a wayland based client machine QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb does permit the
client to run somewhat, however when I was testing this some time ago two
problems resulted in an unusable experience
- client window resizing eventually stopped worked i.e dragging, fullscreen
etc
- keyboard input was lost in the client window

arguably these may have the same root cause, my testing was only out of
curiosity so it wasn't exhaustive. I eventually reverted to X11 for this
and other performance reasons generally

Closing the client whilst running on wayland and restarting the client
worked for a time then the same problems would occur.

Client machine was KDE, I am not sure what their wayland implementation was
at the time.I have not motivation to move to wayland as x2go is my primary
interface locally.
