Hi,

Plasma 5 allowed me to modify the default Kickoff menu like this for example:

PLASMA="/usr/share/plasma/plasmoids"
KICKOFF="$PLASMA/org.kde.plasma.kickoff/contents/config/main.xml"

echo "  Configuring Kickoff menu."
sed -i -e 's/preferred:\/\/browser/firefox.desktop/g' $KICKOFF
sed -i -e 's/org.kde.kontact.desktop/thunderbird.desktop/g' $KICKOFF
sed -i -e
's/writer.desktop,libreoffice-writer.desktop/libreoffice-startcenter.desktop/g'
$KICKOFF
sed -i -e 's/org.kde.digikam.desktop,//g' $KICKOFF
sed -i -e 's/org.kde.kate.desktop,//g' $KICKOFF
sed -i -e 's/systemsettings.desktop,//g' $KICKOFF
sed -i -e 's/org.kde.Help.desktop,//g' $KICKOFF
sed -i -e 's/org.kde.khelpcenter.desktop,//g' $KICKOFF
sed -i -e 's/org.kde.konsole.desktop//g' $KICKOFF
sed -i -e 's/org.kde.dolphin.desktop,/org.kde.dolphin.desktop/g' $KICKOFF
sed -i -e 's/suspend,hibernate/logout/g' $KICKOFF

It seems like this feature has disappeared under Plasma 6. All features seem to
be hard-coded into the Kickoff menu. This is a bit puzzling. Normally this is
the kind of thing GNOME developers do. 

Please restore the possibility for a system administrator to tweak the default
configuration for all users.

On a side note: we're currently running Plasma 5 on Rocky Linux in our local
school. I'm preparing the upgrade to Plasma 6.
