Is this really a power management issue and not the issue that the CPU is constantly hard at work rendering the UI?

Nope, it's power management. It's not implemented yet, so the laptop doesn't sleep and doesn't even throttle. "In the future" it should work though.
Power management should work for the most part. Sleeping and hibernation doesn't work yet but it should definitely scale to your load. All the usual things like setting the performance governor should work. See the driver discussion here: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pm/20220504075153.185208-1-mar...

If you have issues with this please report it to marcan (or somewhere on IRC in the project or whatever).
