The most recent YouGov poll had support for Welsh independence at 25% (32% once you take out don't knows). That's not exactly no one. Same poll also showed Plaid Cymru at 22% ahead of the upcoming Senedd elections which would be their largest % since 2007 where they formed a coalition with Labour. There's been talk of a repeat of this, with the parties sharing the first ministership.

Add to that the growth in membership of Plaid Cymru and pressure group Yes Cymru and the formation of new Welsh nationalist parties, then I think you have a growing movement worthy of discussion. Particularly considering the fact Scotland appear to be edging closer to leaving the union
