by KIO, e.g. RTMP,

Marco
# Kirigami
* fixed a positioning problem for overlaysheet not always evident but
that reliably mispositioned the sheet in the firewall kcm
#System Settings
* fighting with the horrible icon mode to fix some of the recent
regressions (only real fix for the icon mode, should be git rm, btw,
and i hope it can at least die in plasma6)

# System Monitor
* new sensor face on the store: one that looks like an 80's
# Plasma Mobile
* looking into notification actions support in the mobile lockscreen
* lockscreen qml can briefly execute an action before the greeter quits
* actions except phone ringing will ask for pin to unlock before being
really triggered
