x11docker x11docker/kde-plasma konsole

x11docker --wayland --dbus x11docker/kde-plasma konsole 

• Plasma destop as nested Wayland compositor:

x11docker --gpu --init=systemd -- --cap-add=SYS_RESOURCE -- x11docker/kde-plasma startplasmacompositor

• Plasma Wayland-only session without X11 in kwin_wayland from host:

x11docker --gpu --kwin x11docker/kde-plasma plasmashell

⁠Options:
