I'm trying to ween myself off the KDE desktop so I flip between it and lxqt.
I use the plasma panel on the LHS with autohide and the main apps I have in
my Quicklaunch are Chromium, Thunderbird, SystemSettings, Transmission-qt,
Kcalc, Ksnapshot, Kate, Dolphin, Akregator and SMplayer. I remove activities
and have 6 virtual desktops and Konsole is already open on desk 1 from a
manually saved session. Other apps like Gwenview, Krita and Okular get
launched via mime.types so I rarely start them up, so they don't even make
it to my secondary kmenu favourites area.

FWIW my point being is I rarely have to use the app menu to launch other apps
and Kcalc is something I use regularly enough to deserve a primary Quicklaunch
position. To me it should be a default OS app.

BTW I can't use the lxqt screenshot app because it doesn't do rectangular
selections, just fullscreen and windows. I still use Dolphin because of it's
split window dual pane layout (drag n drop from one to the other) and the font
rendering in Juffed is not good enough, compared to Kate, to dogfood it.

However Qterminal can replace Konsole. Just some of my personal observations.

I need to start somewhere so sign me up and I'll try to find some time.
