RDP is functionality that has to be built into the compositor, rather than a pretty integral part of X itself. WSLg (Windows Subsystem for Linux [2] GUI) works via RDP, and it's Wayland only too.

But that's not a good thing. Code should be able to be written once and reused, not rewritten for every single compositor, which in practice means every single DE and then some.
