SUMMARY
The desktop application of KDE connect lacks the ability to manually add
devices by IP, which makes it difficult to pair desktop to desktop across
subnets.
It is possible to achieve this by manually adding a customDevices line to the
config file, but a UI option would make things a lot easier.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set up two computers (Linux / Windows / macOS) on two different subnets
2. Try to pair them to each other
OBSERVED RESULT
No pair by IP option in UI, must edit config file manually
EXPECTED RESULT
Pair by IP button in UI
