hmm, is it possible to make a copy and name it something completely different ,
then it will be treated as a completely new widget?

I realize this is a niche thing, but so far this has been one of the very few
things I am mildly miffed at (for a lack of a better term) with on KDE. I am
happy with any non breaking work-arounds
