I wonder if this merge will improve the odd fractional scaling issues I've been having with my framework laptop. Blurry text and windows for electron apps really sours the experience of using the wayland with the laptops resolution.


That's probably because a lot of electron apps still run via Xwayland and you need to opt into ozone (chromium Wayland implementation)


This merge is not going to improve anything by itself, in the same vein as update to HTTP protocol is not going to improve any existing HTTP servers and clients.


Protocol merges require compositor implementations to be ready ahead of merge.


They require two implementations. It's not going to help if these implementations are in the compositors nobody cares.


In practice, at least one of them is Kwin or Mutter and the other is wlroots. So usually there's pretty decent coverage.
