Sorry for the dumb question, but what is the significance of this issue, "popups are windows"? Has something changed in Wayland which makes child windows unworkable?

Ah, I understand - this is happening as part of Apples' crusade to rid the world of popup menus. Thanks for the details - I encounter little fiddly issues like this with my own apps, so its good context.
Just to confirm - this happens with the older version of DBeaver, running on the newer version of MacOS, right? You didn't upgrade DBeaver, meanwhile, I assume?
Why dumb? Just a question to me, I gladly elaborate.
If I loose a connection I used to get a little popup in the bottom right corner when I try to execute a query, explaining why it's not executing.
They now popup in the middle of the screen and are much larger. I remember I had to close them by hand at some point, but maybe I'm wrong because I just reproduced it and they closed themselves quickly.
Only this little popups annoy me. The bigger child windows behave the same.
(The 2-3 child windows that show on app startup --flash, tip-of-the-day, and another one-- are quite annoying though and according to my colleagues it's not possible to enforce a setting that stop them from showing; but these were already annoying on Xorg)
