^ I agreed with this, and/or just place the most-frequently clicked targets
(e.g, favorite apps) in a single pane above the cursor. If they insist on a
split view, then have the most-frequently clicked targets positioned in the
pane *directly above* the cursor; prioritize *THAT* pane over the
less-often-used categories and sub-menus.


I demonstrated this in two videos, while using Plasma 5.22.5, which uses the
well-intended "TriangleMouseFilter" attempted "fix".

This new launcher requires more conscious effort, whereas the legacy launcher
was more straight-forward with larger, breathable commonly accessed targets.
