FWIW, X11 isn't sufficient for Wayland users but Vim isn't ready yet.
$ pkg install cage vim
$ GDK_BACKEND=wayland cage -d gvim
E233: cannot open display
vim-8.2.1943/src/gui_gtk_x11.c:
#if GTK_CHECK_VERSION(3,10,0)
// Vim currently assumes that Gtk means X11, so it cannot use native Gtk
// support for other backends such as Wayland.
gdk_set_allowed_backends ("x11");
#endif
