Bug ID: 405268
Summary: Usability: "logout" search term in launcher ranks
"Desktop Session" kcm over "logout"
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.15.2
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: Application Launcher (Kickoff)
Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Reporter: lu...@lwsabota.com
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
When searching "logout" in the Application Launcher (at least in English), the
"Desktop Session" kcm module is ranked higher than the "Logout" function. I
imagine most users will more frequently want to log out of plasma when typing
"plasma" before adjusting their desktop session settings. I'm not sure the
details of how the search results for application launcher are ranked, but for
usability reasons it would make sense to rank "logout" (which is an exact
match) over "Desktop Session"
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use English langauge (en_US in my case; haven't tried others)
2. Click the application launcher (or press the hotkey)
3. Type "logout"
OBSERVED RESULT
The first result is "Desktop Session" kcm session. The second result is
"Logout".
EXPECTED RESULT
I'd expect the exact match and likely always more frequently used "logout" to
be the first result.
