I have just conducted a few more tests. Strangely enough, the process WILL work with Fedora 25 Wayland out-of-the-box, but it breaks after running system update. For some reason, transparency no longer works, so what you end up with is an embedded black box. I suppose the article should be cancelled for release, unless I can make the steps work with another terminal emulator (I have had success with using rxvt in the past, maybe it would not be subject to the shortcomings??)
