--- Comment #24 from Lonnie <k...@startport.com> ---
I have no clue how to access the "Activity Switcher" without Googling it. The
only thing I know how to do, on a completely blank desktop, is to right-click
it. From the context-menu produced, the closest thing I see to an "Activity
Switcher" is "Activities". Clicking that, produces this:

My request, and the submitter's request, was to put the "Display Settings"
menu-item into the right-click-context-menu of every monitor's desktop. And in
my own bug report, I additionally requested (with foresight) that you should
also ensure that it opens on the very desktop that was right-clicked.

I hope someone at KDE appreciates directness: because anything that compromises
the exactness of my prior sentence, compromises perfection. Assuming the
"Activity Switcher" was something I used, and that it was easily "discoverable"
from my "blank screen" (while ignoring panels to simulate default), was a false
assumption. How, someone considers "Activity Switcher" a more pertinent
location for "Display Settings", than the desktop's right-click menu, is beyond
me.

Compared to GNOME, I'm thankful for any compromise from development. However, I
consider this compromise less discoverable than what was requested.

Additionally, and separately, I also consider it less than optimal that
panel-creations, created on an non-primary display, by default get place onto
the primary desktop (sometimes overlaying an existing panel --terrible
placement)! The oversight, of not putting display settings into the right-click
context menu of each monitor's desktop, would have been easier to overcome had
I been able to create a panel (with an Application Menu) onto the the very
desktop that I right clicked to do so.

Again, I hope you appreciate directness: because I have plenty of it when I'm
drinking.
