If the `GDK_BACKEND` environment variable is present and it's value does not match the Wayland and X11 socket configuration, then a GTK app will fail to run since it will only consider the display backend from the environment variable. This should probably be extended to cover other display environment variables such as `QT_QPA_PLATFORM` for Qt and `SDL_VIDEODRIVER` for SDL. However, I've only tested this with GTK applications.
