--- Comment #3 from Samuel M. <samuel.maier2+bugs.kde....@hotmail.de> ---
I guess I'm the famous spacebar-heater guy... but I extensively use this
behavior.
Before plasma 6 I had an array of first 4, then 6 desktops in a grid, these
were fixed. When plasma 6 came out I wondered why my overview did not look like
the clips I had seen, and eventually I figured out it was the grid layout,
which seems incompatible.
So I had to rethink my virtual desktop handling. Before that I had already had
the situation that I ran out of virtual desktops in specific tasks, while most
of the time most desktops were empty anyways and just taking up space.
When I saw that you got a remove icon in the overview, and then tried the MMB
to remove a desktop - which also works for most other things tabs in broswers
or dolphin, windows in the overview, ... - I thought this was intended and
adjusted my virtual desktop management to regularely add and remove desktop in
a linear layout.
So honestly removing this for me feature is not amazing. Closing desktops with
the close button is much more effort than roughly aiming at the desktop and
clicking the MMB - which shares muscle memory with closing windows and by now
has trained specific muscle memory too - and opening new desktops is
appropriately easy, just drag a window to the plus desktop button.
And removing desktops is IMO not really destructive at all, unless you had a
BUNCH of windows on that desktop. All Apps that were opened just go to another
desktop, keeping their shape and their monitor assignment. So if you made a
mistake just drag the few windows back over to a new desktop.
