SUMMARY

After using plasma for years, krunner has become my most powerful tool, and the
primary way I interact with my system. While very powerful, I now see it's
shortcomings. For example, when you need to render a lot of small elements, say
emojis, your only solution is to display them as a list, which is very
unpractical. That's why I would like plugins to be able to render their own QML
windows inside krunner itself, similar to what Raycast is doing over on macOS,
or what the new powertoys command palette on Windows.

The ideal, *for me*, would be to be able to just search for "emoji smile" and
have krunner render on the right a small grid of all matching emojis, and a
little description of the emoji under it. What gets rendered on the side would
be defined by the plugin itself.

Another example would be file search plugin, it could render a small dolphin
view with quick actions.
