Maybe I explain here one more thing -- I was not concerned about
regular-user vs. power-user vs. developer. I was concerned about the
main principle (violation here) of the design:
Correct steps of design:
problem -> features -> interface -> implementation
Now, plasma look for me like this:
theory -> implementation -> interface -> features -> problem
It is not an irony, it comes from the fact that I don't hear a lot of
arguing about efficiency, accessibility but immediate backing up by
referring to doctrine "X is not... ;-)".
So, it is rather even lower level. _What is the aim_?

Currently I can only be involved at the reporting level. And I
proposed (imho) pretty nice solutions to make plasma more accessible.
Even if I would send the patches, they would be "incompatible" with
the current theory. It is hard to help if someone refuses help (I am
not complaining here, I am just stating the fact).
Cheers,
