From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

How long does a change like this take to make it's way into Plasma 6?

there's already a non-draft implementation, if I had to guess a few weeks before it's merged, and then you have to wait for a release, and then your distro has to package it. So, it's gonna be a while.
BUT, I think much more importantly is when it is merged into xwayland

Which should be fairly soon!
