sure, it was only related to the time you have to "configure it".. when using
plasmoids that's exactly its goal, sure

having a way to load/save config should be implemented or not, but not
partially.. if you want to save current status you want it exactly as it is,
not "only certain plasmoids because it's easier to implement"

maybe the point are not certain aspects of the load/save system, but the system
itself.. i can understand you don't want to have this feature (in fact it's not
something mandatory), but assuming that you want to it should be right done
