It's now possible to save and restore a program's state in Qt6.6, so I need to figure out how I'll handle like app tombstoning for better power management once people start adding that support to desktop environments. #258

Here's a blogpost that mentions it and has a video toward the bottom: http://blog.davidedmundson.co.uk/blog/qt6_wayland_robustness/

My reply here describes what I'm thinking with the context of the rest of the replies in the thread: https://mastodon.online/@DrewNaylor/111053584287863667

Would need to have a settings page for saying which apps can run in the background without tombstoning and which can't, along with a thing that lets them tombstone if they're not doing anything in the background (likely a signal of some sort that replies to a daemon hooked up to the compositor and says "I need to run in the background" when the daemon says, "Hey, you need to tombstone". If an app is allowed to run in the background, the daemon allows it, or else it goes "lol no" and tombstones it).
