That's more of a GNOME effort, if I'm being honest. It's a feature that's provided via GTK's libraries, but the whole "we're going to add CSD and you're not going to do anything about it" has been more of a GNOME sentiment[0].

App developers will design their apps in a certain way and will add features that they think benefits the app. Some will add CSD if they think it's beneficial and others won't. What is it that you would want to do about that? That's always been how it is. If you were in charge of designing the app then you'd be the one going to meetings and writing the code.
