Wow, this bug exists since 2012! When KDE 4 was still normal. More than 5½
years now.
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=302968#c0
An example of where the “nobody’s responsibility” culture of most open source
projects fails.
And the most-discussed thing in those years, was whether the user should be
treated like a moron. (Which usually follows the great motto of coprorations:
“Treat the user like a moron *until he is*.” Shifting the bell cure of
stupidity downwards, resulting in even dumber users and hence even lower
expectations, in a vicious cycle that ends up with nightmares like iOS or
Windows 8 or Ubuntu Unity or MS Bob and Clippy.)
…
I tried to add this functionality myself. But the KDE code is a combination of
such horribly bad and outdated languages and massive gigantic heaps of
boilerplate and bloat, together with a lack of actual documentation, that it
hurts too much to even try to understand it. So I understand well, why things
like this aren’t just fixed by a volunteer (or even regular).
When you discover you’re riding a dead horse, … dismount.
*dismounts*
