Feature Request

I confirm:

  • [Y] that I haven't found another request for this feature.
  • [Y] that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available that
    contain this feature already.

Description

I want support for the xdg-tag wayland protocol, i want every single game to be tagged as a game

Justification [optional]

Since proton is designed specifically for games, it makes sense to tag things as games by default whenever they're launched through proton, this allows me to set all my games to open in a specific workspace, for example.

Hello @Kommynct, Proton does not currently interact directly with Wayland, which makes this a preemptive feature request. I'm going to close this as not planned for now, but if #4638 gets closed as implemented at some point in the future, then give me a ping and a Proton dev can ponder this further.
