problems with the applets in question.

if one considers each strip in the row to be equivalent to a single device 
with a single physical screen of that size, then it becomes evident.

overlap would be a bug.

probably solvable by allowing focus and swipes on the focused applet not 
moving things.

we have the same kind of issues with swipable web views or if it was a grid :)

a grid might be more efficient. i'm not sure as it would be a tradeoff between 
simplicity and utility, with both being valued by different user in different 
ways.

in any case, i understood Marco's idea to be more that context pages are used 
also for non-contextual plasmoids?
