           Summary: kicker restores some widgets in wrong order on session
                    restore
           Product: kde
           Version: 4.6
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: Thomas.Eschenbacher at gmx.de


Version:           4.6 (using KDE 4.6.2) 
OS:                Linux



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
- add some widgets to the kicker applet, e.g. in this order:
  K menu / device notifier / kcalc / firefox / thunderbird
- log out
- log in again

Actual Results:  
the order of some widgets (application icons) is messed up. In my case I get:
K menu / firefox / device notifier / kcalc / thunderbird

and I have to reorder them every time manually :-(

Expected Results:  
The order in which I put the widgets should be stored and survive a
logout/login.

This annoyance exists since the earlies KDE-4.x versions I had. Since KDE-4.6
at least the widgets which are at the right side of the pager keep their
position, which is an improvement against the versions before.

The order which KDE "decides" to use seems to be stable, if I log out/in
multiple times no further changes occur.

How can I help debugging this?
Is this "order" of widgets stored in some config file under
~/.kde4/share/config ?
