--- Comment #2 from Cherkah <[email protected]> ---
The use case involves the bulk management of Flatpak permissions. The KCM (KDE
Control Module) is the dedicated tool for Flatpak permissions, but it also
lists non-Flatpak applications, which obscures the specific group I am
interested in.

It is possible to access the permission settings for a Flatpak directly via
Discover, and this type of application is becoming increasingly common.

When testing Flatpaks, I like to ensure that all my Flatpak applications have
consistent permissions. It would be helpful to spare the user from having to
navigate a mixed list. For instance, if the same application is installed both
as an RPM and as a Flatpak, it appears twice in the list with no visible
distinction.

Therefore, I believe that visual grouping (or filtering by type) would allow me
to treat this group as a single entity, without needing to recall the name of
every individual application—in most cases, users identify applications by
their icons (even when presented with a selection of just five)—and the search
field does not address this need for a categorized view.

For comparison, the application launcher offers categorized groupings; the
permissions KCM, by contrast, would only need two such categories.
