For the record, I'm not seeing this.

Here's my system info:
Operating System: Artix Linux x86_64
KDE Plasma Version: 6.6.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.25.0
Qt Version: 6.11.0
Kernel Version: 6.19.12-artix1-1 (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland
Processors: 12 × AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6-Core Processor
Memory: 96 GiB of RAM (94.2 GiB usable)
Graphics Processor: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060
Manufacturer: ASUS

I installed Redot 26.1 LTS from the AUR (paru), and tested this in a script to see:
Debug.WriteLine($"XDG_SESSION_TYPE: {OS.GetEnvironment("XDG_SESSION_TYPE")}");

This is the output:
XDG_SESSION_TYPE: wayland

Also, wondering if this is behavior is unpredictable or something, and Godot simply didn't fix it and threw mud at it (guessing), because there's this in the editor settings:

Seems like that shouldn't be necessary. And, I reckon if we're after doing this properly, it'd be good to include removing that :P.
