Is it actually in Wayland or is it "implementation should handle it somehow" like most of wayland? Because what is probably 90% of wayland install base only supports communicating integer scales to clients.

It's in Wayland in the same way everything else is, i.e. fractional scaling is now a protocol included in the standard protocol suite.

As someone shipping a couple of million cars per year running Wayland, the install base is a lot bigger than you think it is :)
