            Bug ID: 390594
           Summary: Consider Collapsing "Application Addons" and "Plasma
                    Addons" category into one for greater clarity and
                    search reliability
           Product: Discover
           Version: 5.12.0
          Platform: Neon Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: discover
          Assignee: aleix...@kde.org
          Reporter: n...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

The distinction between "Application Addons" and "Plasma Addons" seems
arbitrary and confusing. For example, "Application Addons" contains:
- color schemes
- comics
- emoticons
- kate snippets
- plymouth
- sddmtheme

With the exception of "Kate Snippets", all of these are systemwide in nature
and I would expect them to be in "Plasma Addons" instead. And if there's only
one item in that's truly appropriate for "Application Addons", maybe we should
just have a single "Addons" category that includes everything.

This would simplify things and make searching for addons more reliable, as this
was brought to my attention came up when a user tried to search "Plasma Addons"
for cursor themes, quite understandably not knowing that they would be listed
under "Application Addons" The search came up empty, so he concluded that we
suck at searching.
