Like typing !date and it gives you the exact date or something (or unix time! So many possibilities!)
As most of the underlying work is in QtWayland, I’d say: yes, it’s Wayland only (not being the author nor an expert on display technology, so take my words with some caution).

@Sina@MartinR xorg supported exchanging the compositor before (kwin --replace). I believe xorg didn't support clients surviving a crash of xorg itself.
