--- Comment #2 from Nate Graham <[email protected]> ---
There isn't really a way to make them consistent. One is a real window, one is
a popup inside a window.

The fact that in System Settings, only part of the window becomes darkened is
an unfortunate bug due to System Settings' architecture of being half QtWidgets
and half QtQuick. It's not easily fixable without rewriting System Settings to
be 100% QtWidgets, or changing the darkening effect so that it's no longer done
by Kirigami itself, but rather it calls into the KWin effect to do it to the
whole window when needed. But then the popup itself would be darkened too since
technically it's just ordinary window content. So some clever workaround would
need to be made for that. And note that that effect is currently broken on
Wayland: Bug 460819.

Or, we could abandon in-window popups and always use real windows. But this
would be a massive undertaking and it's kind of not what we want anyway.
