"I fixed this by doing the following in Dolphin: Configure Dolphin > Services >
Uncheck 'File to activity linking plugin'." --> workaround working for me, too;
Amazing that a crash for the complete Shell that affects >90% of the userbase
can be open for months (because of a new feature that is probably only
used/known by 1%). Reason why we're not flooded with tickets is that the
automatic bug reporting cannot be used for this one (I was just able to create
the dump by luck after many trys). I suggest to deactivate Dolphin " 'File to
activity linking plugin'" by default as a first solution measure. Fixing this
feature (whatever it does) can be done in a seperate INC.

If someone's currently collecting donations for a QA, ping me and I'll support
;)

Initially occured with Kubuntu 16.04 Daily Snapshot, but also confirmed with a
standard, stable Live Fedora 23 KDE (tested as VM in VirtualBox):

- simply start VM with the live CD 
- right click on the desktop icon and select properties, as soon as the desktop
has loaded

Should be easy to reproduce, otherwise draw some selection rectengles on the
desktop and repeat the right click -> properties (for me plasmashell crashed
everytime) and I think this is relevant for all KDE Linux distributions.

Please confirm and reproduce. Don't think it's HW related, but just in case, I
have a Intel i5-5675C that seems to suffer from elision lock crashes if there's
no exception list for glibc:
