Review request for Plasma.
Changes
-------
Added unit test.
Summary
-------
There is some code duplication in that some plasmoids share very much of program \
logic but actually differ in just a setting. E.g. the recently made \
ShowActivityManager plasmoid, which just is a DBus call launcher. The Icon plasmoid \
is an example of this made right. I'd like to have more generic plasmoids. Even \
better, I'd like to have an easy way to configure them. \
Let's see the code. config.patch shows a way to load a config metadata file and fill \
a designated plasmoid with the configuration data (metadata.desktop). We search for a \
X-Plasma-ConfigApplet property that defines the plasmoid to configure and load. \
Additional properties define the plasmoid settings. This allows us, for example, to \
easily provide access to any webservice without code duplication. \
Diffs (updated)
