configuration is absolutely the biggest hurdle here. the real challenge comes in supporting multiple applets of the same type. one idea would be to run all the plasmoids in the same process by making the viewer a KUniqueApplication; then it would have one corona, one containment (that would just keep all the widgets in a layout that keeps them from overlapping) but a separate top level window showing each one. then config becomes a non-issue. i'm fine with the translucent background patch/idea, but to really give people what they want it should be a separate shell. it should be trivial to create, probably about the same size (maybe even smaller) than plasmoidviewer currently is as it wouldn't need to support switches for things like the background image, containment type, form factor, location, etc. -- Aaron J.
