It annoys me from time to time that I do not know whether kwin uses OpenGL or falls back to XRender (e.g. on tablet). So this ends the problem by just asking on DBus.
I will wait with committing till Arthur finished the last bit of splitting out the Workspace methods in composite into a Compositor class and will then export a new Object /Compositor on the DBus interface.
Testing
* kwin_gles returns OpenGL ES 2.0
* kwin returns OpenGL 2.x
* No Compositing returns No Compositing
* XRender I assume returns XRender.
