Wait: remove virtual desktops to "sharpen" the case for activities???

You realize when you suppress something else (something that has worked well
for 20 years) in order to push your new stuff (which doesn't work that well at
all) you are automatically on the WRONG track don't you?

There are a large number of user that just want Virtual Desktops, independently
configurable as they were in the past.  We would gladly BANISH Activities from
KDE all together as a demonstrably failed method, which now, it seems, can only
be further propped up by trying to kill off virtual desktops.

Yet we were never give the opportunity to keep working virtual desktops without
having the poorly though out, and sloppily implemented activities thrust down
our throat. 

Now we are told that the developers of activities never use virtual desktop (it
was becoming obvious) and aren't interested fixing the damage they have
inflicted upon them.

You guys broke them, you fix them!
