Adding some context here:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/merge_requests/264

Some wayland compositors might ship their own ext-zones implementations/plugins
already but it will still require a toolkit to support the protocol as
well. The protocol is
still not officially merged (sadly it seems unlikely it will be merged
anytime sooner),
so even if your compositor shipped with such support, you will still
need to patch your
Qt to make it support this protocol.

Alternatively, you can force your application to use Xwayland (will
lose proper HiDPI,
high fresh rate, and HDR support). Or maybe join the discussion on that protocol
and see if it's possible to let Wayland support these sort of basic
features in the
future.
