            Bug ID: 390928
           Summary: GlobalDrawer used as an always-visible sidebar rather
                    than for its intended purpose
           Product: Discover
           Version: 5.12.2
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: discover
          Assignee: aleix...@kde.org
          Reporter: n...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

>From reading the docs and talking to Kirigami developers, it seems like we're
abusing GlobalDrawer. It was intended to only be visible on mobile, as a kind
of vertical menubar that you could call up at any time (on the desktop, a
regular horizontal menubar would be displayed instead). Instead, we're using it
on the desktop as an always-visible sidebar, which doesn't seem right, and
causes bugs based on implementation details (see Bug 390927).

We should consider using a more appropriate UI element that's designed to be an
always-visible sidebar.
