Review request for kde-workspace.


Description
-------

(This comes from a patch included in openSUSE)

This patch makes kickoff remember all the .desktop files it sees (in kickoffrc). 
New ones are additionally shown in a seperate submenu named "Recently Installed" (for 3 days).

This can be toggled on and off in the plasmoid's settings.


This addresses bug 316916.

Testing
-------

Created a new .desktop file in ~/.local/share/applications, ran kbuildsycoca4 and the menu "Recently Installed" appeared with this entry.
After logout/login this is still present.
Deleted the .desktop file again, ran kbuildsycoca4 and the menu "Recently Installed" disappeared again.

I have been using the (vanilla KDE) kickoff applet with this patch for about a week now.

Also this patch is already part of openSUSE for several years...


Thanks,

Wolfgang Bauer
