This requires _GTK_FRAME_EXTENTS support, which is now planned for KWin--in a
way that doesn't break other things, of course. :) I'm hoping this lands in
Plasma 5.18. Marking as a duplicate of the bug tracking that work.

A bit of necrobump but I agree with Nate. The shadows should be created and
drawn as for any other client simply ignoring what gtk has set as shadow
properties

In a related GTK bug report
(https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=729794), Matthias Clasen--a lead
GTK developer--says the following on this subject: 

"As you've found out, we already let the theme creators configure the
applications appearance, including the shadows."

I may be misunderstanding the scope of work, but it doesn't seem like there are
necessarily any KWin changes needed here: just some tweaks to the theme itself
to tell KWin to always draw the shadows.

GTK 3 has certain issues of non-compliance with freedesktop.org standards which
prevents a lot of these sorts of things from working properly in KWin. I'm not
yet certain, but I think shadows around elements such as this would face the
same issues we've seen with other elements like transparency and shadows around
client-side decorations. GTK doesn't give the information for these boundaries
in a way that reliably fits into KWin's structure.

I've been told that rewriting KWin to handle this could take months and there's
no guarantee it wouldn't break again immediately as GTK 3 handles many of these
things outside of any agreed upon standard or specification.

I'll look into it, but I think it's entirely likely we may have to accept this
as a visual limitation until the broader issues surrounding GTK 3 are resolved.
