Description

I wanted to configure my GPU through nvidia-settings to leave PowerMizer at Max Performace, not only PowerMizer but it would be great if nvidia-settings had all the X11 options available in Wayland as well. I don't know if setting PowerMizer in X11 keeps the configuration in Wayland but even so it's still good if nvidia-settings is 100% functional in Wayland.

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Begin by reviewing how nvidia-settings handles X11 options and Wayland, then define the PowerMizer behavior required under Wayland and verify it in a Wayland session; full X11 option parity needs separate scope.
