18 Just remerged from sources and restarted kde. It still works. Not only
19 the existing plasmoids, but adding new versions of it, to both the desktop/
20 activity and a panel, it all works.
21
22 We /are/ talking about the package that provides the quickaccess plasmoid,
23 right? Sort of like folderview but creates a menu when it is placed on a
24 desktop (activity) as well as when in a panel, thus taking up far less
25 room on the desktop?

27 CCing the bug for further discussion, but it certainly works just fine for
28 me! Why remove what's working?
