(once again sorry for the TRIPLE comment)

Just thought of  another case where this could be a bad user experience.
Someone with a mixed-DPI setup upgrading to Plasma 5.26 and having their
applications like Steam scaled incorrectly, and not knowing what the problem
is. I follow a certain blog detailing adventures in Linux and KDE and that's
how I found out about the feature change ;-) I'm also quite sure this will be
mentioned in the Plasma 5.26 changelog, in fact I'm fairly sure it was even
mentioned in the Beta changelog.

But not every user will read a changelog. Maybe even a lot of users. This would
be a jarring thing to see after an update, and it's easily something a user
might reinstall over. I dunno, I certainly see the merit and the reason to have
this as a general default but I can also see it being a big annoyance to other
users. Though you could say this is currently par for the course with Wayland,
eventually Wayland will be what we move over to, and user experience issues
like this might only add to the frustrations a new user might feel.
