SUMMARY
Just switched back to KDE recently. Organized my Places in the sidebar
alphabetically (except for Trash at the bottom), but frequently when I try to
use "Downloads" it's missing, because Dolphin has arbitrarily decided to move
it to the bottom of the Places list after Trash. Items in the Places list
should remain where the user put them when organizing the list.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Organize the Places list in the Dolphin sidebar alphabetically.
2. Use Dolphin and the "Downloads" Places item frequently
3. Eventually Dolphin will move the "Downloads" item to the bottom of the
Places list.
4. Move the Downloads folder back into its place in the alphabetically sorted
Places list.
5. Repeat steps 2-4 endlessly and scream at computer.
OBSERVED RESULT
Dolphin doesn't retain the Places folder order that the user set up. It seems
insistent that the "Downloads" folder in particular be at the bottom of the
Places list. I've not seen it move any other folders around. Happens at least
once every day or two, sometimes more frequently.
EXPECTED RESULT
Dolphin allows user to reorder Places list and preserves this user-defined
order.
