Title:
Don't restrict jump list actions to Unity
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Firefox in its application .desktop file provides a couple of Desktop
Actions ("jump list actions"), for opening a new tab or a new
incognito tab. Since Plasma 5.6 those actions are also supported by
KDE Plasma and there's no reason these actions should be restricted to
Unity (OnlyShowIn=Unity).
They are currently shown in Plasma and work just fine as I did not
implement support for OnlyShowIn/NotShowIn in Desktop Actions (which I
didn't see explicitly mentioned in the spec though). For Plasma 5.8
which will have MPRIS controls in the context menu I want to add
support for this to avoid double entries in media players (many abuse
static Desktop Actions for player controls).
However, I don't want to break users relying on the ability to open
new (incognito) tabs through the task bar in Plasma, hence I request
the OnlyShowIn for Firefox desktop actions to be dropped.
(Alternatively "KDE" could be added, but I don't see any reason for
not enabling them globally).
