looks quite straightforward. i'm not overly fond of having "wm console" and=
 "desktop console" and not being able to switch between them in the UI. it =
would be very cool to have the ability to switch modes from the toolbar. =


what would be FANTASTIC is to be able to put blocks of plasma-desktop and k=
win code in the same editor and have it run the JS in the "right" place, bu=
t i think that faces a number of limitations due to the nature of controlli=
ng an out of process app (kwin). either the kwin API would need to implemen=
ted in plasmagenericshell's scripting and in there forward calls on via DBu=
s (or whatever) or limit it rather unnaturally to blocks of code that would=
 get executed in their own context (e.g. no variables available from both a=
 desktop block and a kwin block)

so that seems like something for another day, as it would be quite a bit of=
 work :)

imho, for now this can go in as-is with the addition of a drop down in the =
toolbar to switch between modes easily
