@Sujith, yes I am also thinking along the same lines.
@Sinny is that good enough?

One more issue, related to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=318816 . Opening \
associated audio/video file in PMC, first homescreen appear then playlist and then \
video is visible. It looks little awkward. Expected behaviour: Only video player \

important one is that it makes navigation flows easier to handle. We can remove old \
hacks, cleanup code that used to manage navigation. On the user&#39;s end, this \
brings more intuitive navigation from homescreen to browser, to playlist etc. Plus, \
keyboard navigation is much easier to do.

This patch improves the UI flows and keyboard navigation. There are still few things \
that don&#39;t have key bindings, so only report issues that are regressions.</pre>  \
