            Bug ID: 509044
           Summary: Feature request: Add "contacts" to Keywords[en_US] in
                    .desktop file
    Classification: Applications
           Product: kaddressbook
      Version First 6.3.3
       Reported In:
          Platform: Debian testing
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
When searching "contact" via Plasma's Application Launcher, KAddressBook
appears in the search results as expected. But when searching "contacts" (with
an s, i.e., plural), KAddressBook does not appear in the results.

I think it would be beneficial to modify the [.desktop
file](https://invent.kde.org/pim/kaddressbook/-/blob/master/src/data/org.kde.kaddressbook.desktop)
to add a (correctly localized) `Keywords[en_US]=<common terms here>` key-value
pair so that, if a user types in "contacts", they see KAddressBook in the
search results.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Search "contact" in Plasma's Application Launcher, note that KAddressBook
appears
2. Search "contacts" in Plasma's Application Launcher, note that KAddressBook
does not appear

OBSERVED RESULT
KAddressBook does not appear in the search results when typing "contacts"
rather than "contact".

EXPECTED RESULT
KAddressBook should appear in the search results when typing "contacts", as it
feels like an intuitive name. Right now, if a user starts typing "contacts",
KAddressBook will appear (because it matches on the singular form, "contact")
and then disappear as soon as the user types the final "s".
