(Updated Dez. 27, 2015, 4:11 nachm.) Review request for KDE Frameworks, Plasma, KDE Usability, and Martin Gräßlin. Changes ------- Variant 2: Use a desktop notification for "regular" crashes. When the passive argument is not set (the default), a desktop notification will be spawned instead of the full-blown DrKonqi dialog [1]. In the notification a user can either choose to restart the app (after which the SNI stays in systray for the remaining minute in case he wants to report a bug nonetheless) or report a bug straight away (same as clicking the SNI, the SNI goes away and DrKonqi appears). In case no notification service is running (eg. plasma crashed or non xdg-compliant desktop environment) regular DrKonqi appears directly. This also happens when Plasma crashes three times in a row where it'll refrain from restarting (see Review 126517) - you won't have a systray anymore then, so full DrKonqi pops up as well. (There's an unused include and member variable in statusnotifier.h, I removed it locally) [1] http://wstaw.org/m/2015/12/25/drkonqipassive.png Repository: plasma-workspace Description ------- This adds a new "--passive" option to DrKonqi where it will only show a StatusNotifierItem rather than bringing up the crash dialog right away. This can be useful for auto-restarting shell services (like plasmashell, krunner, kded) to improve the perceived quality of the product. On Windows RT, for example, the guidelines even explicitly say "rather just dump the user on the home screen than telling him something went wrong, so he can just quickly start the app again instead of being annoyed by an error message". On iOS you also just get dropped on the home screen. Windows desktop shows a "Searching for a solution" dialog which was *the* major annoyance when something crashed, rather than the actual crash.

Afterwards I got a SNI which opened DrKonqi when tapped. The SNI disappears after 1 minute because if you didn't bother to look after it by then, you probably forgot what you did to cause the crash anyway :) Thanks, Kai Uwe Broulik
