So in first instance, I'll be aiming for an up-to-date (-ish) Plasma

I got my invitation to the Janitor Alpha yesterday. Had a look around.
It's definitely an interesting idea. I successfully compiled and
installed Okular in my container (albeit without Breeze icons; it's a
work in progress).
I could see the appeal for people who just want to hack on something to
see how it works. It's a nice sandbox environment. It's definitely an
easy way to give someone their first taste of exploring KDE source code
and compiling one of the applications. And it's almost certainly tidier
than my virtual machine instance currently named "Neon Dev Ultra Unstable".
It's an alpha-within-an-alpha, but there might be something here worth
pursuing. Plenty of work still ahead, but good job to Adriaan and
Raphael for getting it updated and workable.

ps: we can also use the VNC connection option to demonstrate lynx,
something I bet most new contributors can't even wrap their minds around.
