--- Comment #9 from JantarMantar <paresh_ad...@yahoo.com> ---
Just came across this issue in my quest to be able to make my KDE Plasma
environment completely reproducible. Surely, it's a huge undertaking, but I am
glad to learn that KDE developers are working towards it.
I did not realize what a joy it is to be able to reproduce an exact environment
(be it desktop, development, or test) until I recently switched to NixOS.
That's when the distinction between user preferences v/s application state
became clear to me. Because of that, my views are slightly different on
storing-preferences-is-an-implementation-detail. IMHO, preferences are an
interface that the application exposes to the users. Using GUI is only one way
to manipulate the preferences. Ability to store them in a simple (with emphasis
on simple) text file so that one can store them in GitHub, or use something
like Nix or Ansible to manage them is also important.
Thank you for all the amazing work you do!
