Given that we don't even have a solution for Wayland native clients, it's a bit
hard to see how Xwayland should be mapped there.

The first idea coming to mind would be to associate the RandR chosen mode with
*all* Xwayland windows, perhaps with some per-output heuristics, and let the
Wayland window manager do the same standard magic it would do with native
Wayland windows.

That is purely because X11 has no per-window video mode thing, so Xwayland
cannot know which window a setting should apply to.
