This is the crucial point for me. Admittedly I don't have user data to support this yet (but we could easily ask some users to find out), but I assume that from a user's perspective, whether an application is a favorite or not is indeed an attribute of the application (or technically its menu entry) and not of the Plasmoid. Subjectively, people declare an application as a favorite, not tell the launcher that it should include an application in a specific list. If we want to know what mental model people have of this, we could easily ask them. If each person reading this email would just ask a few people (both regular Plasma users and users of other desktops/operating systems would be interesting) whether they see the favorites list as part of the launcher configuration or as a property of the application, we'd already have valuable data. Should we do this? _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
