I created a mock (see attached) up with some ideas. Please feel free to steal
as much as you like.


1: The 'name' is obviously the name of the vault, but when hovering over it you
see it is clickable. Clicking it will open the directory in dolphin.

2: when hovering anywhere on the encrypted vault or files (see 4), show the
config icon (see klipper how this works). The config icon opens a new window
with the configuration.

3: much like now; mount and unmount icons. For mount also see 6.

4: for the vault, show recently opened documents. Clicking on them will open
the associated application with this doc in it.
Bonus points for making this activity sensitive. Which means that if I opened a
doc in Activity1, it doesn't show up here when in Activity2.

5: Create new vault. Much like the "add activity" button in plasma, only looks
like a button on mouse-hover. Opens the wizard.

6: A second, not mounted, vault. The configure and mount icon only show on
hover.
Where on a mounted vault the clicking on the name (see 1) caused dolphin to be
opened, here it slides out an input field for the password and an Ok button to
attempt mounting it.
Assuming the vault plasma widget is on a panel, we want to make the interaction
be smooth for the people where this opens the popup. The goal is to mount and
open a recent file in one go.

This way you can also give better feedback and avoid interrupting the workflow.

Hope you like it!
