  1. I am very unlikely to switch away from KDE Plasma 6
  2. I would anyways like to try Sway or the like
  3. I dont use virtual desktops and find just navigating through a bottom taskbar makes more sense for me
  4. I have many apps fullscreen, and would never tile more than once vertically, as I am on a Laptop
  5. I want: NightLight, tray icons, a good app menu, many KDE Apps (Dolphin, Kate, Ark, Gwenview, Spectacle Edit feature at least)

Are Wayland WMs ready for this use case? What would you recommend to fill these exact requirements?

It means that anything you can do, set, or configure in the WM, you can do through a CLI RPC mechanism. There is no configuration file, no custom config syntax. The "config" is just a shell script full of these commands that herbstluftwm calls when it starts. Literally any behavior you can configure or make happen, you can do with these command line calls.
