If that really meets my needs, that will pull me away from KDE to a wlroots based compositor. I'll try it later, thanks.

KRDP: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/krdp

But it needs a logged-in session, you can't get access to the login manager.

I want to connect to a logged-in session; I can't get krdp to let me do it without me locally granting permissions though.

They fixed that. I can definitely connect remotely in an unattended way as long as I'm logged in locally.

These might have something to do with it:
