For context, my setup uses polkit and I regret I need NVIDIA drivers. Launching regreet through sway instead of cage works.

You mean ReGreet starts up fast if you're using Sway, and takes up to 30s when using Cage?

[pescepalla]

Yes. I've pinned it down to xdg-desktop-portal.

See flatpak/xdg-desktop-portal#1115

When xdg-desktop-portal is uninstalled, I can use cage with regreet.

Solved upstream with release of xdg-desktop-portal 0.18.2
