- The decoration's "bottom" property clashed with Item's (KWin refused it).
- No On All Desktops button with one virtual desktop, like Breeze.
- decoration/apply.sh finds the session's D-Bus through plasmashell (KWin's
environment isn't readable), and installs each try under a new name: KWin
keeps a decoration's QML by name until it restarts.
- ft-floatd starts its script with Scripting.start: after a reload, the new
script gets the old one's id while the old one is still being deleted, so
run() on /Scripting/Script<id> went to the old script and the new one never
ran (a second ft-floatd start left floating windows without their script).

Frametop's own window decoration (decoration/), a QML decoration for KWin's
Aurorae engine drawn like Breeze, puts a float button left of Close. It's the
Keep Below button with its own glyph: the KWin script floats a window when
keep-below is set and docks it when it's cleared, and keeps the flag set on
every floating window, so the button shows "back to the desktop" there. The
session script installs the decoration for the Frametop desktop only;
decoration/apply.sh switches a running desktop to it or back to Breeze.
Not yet tried in a running KWin.

The input relay owns the float key now: float_toggle (Meta+Shift+F unless the
rules have their own key combinations) floats the window under the pointer, or
the active one over the wallpaper, and docks it if it floats. dock_all puts
every floating window back. Both are mappable to mouse and controller buttons,
and work without pointer mode. The KWin script no longer registers a shortcut,
and ft-floatd drops the old one. Key combinations move to Input Settings'
Keyboard page.
docs/floating-windows.md records the decisions from 2026-09-30 (the title bar
button, Launch as Standalone, profiles), and docs/profiles.md plans profiles.
