I am trying to add new plasmoids with the Install New Widgets -> Download From Internet option.

The Get Hot New Stuff dialog comes up, and I can see the available selections with previews and descriptions. I choose one to try out and click Install.

After that, I am not sure what to do. It looks like it installs -- the button text changes from Install to Uninstall, but I cannot add the plasmoid.

I close the GHNS dialog, but the newly downloaded plasmoid is not available in the Add Widgets dialog.

I also tried dragging directly from the GHNS to the desktop, but that does not work.

Also, if I close the Add Widgets dialog, open it again, and go back in to GHNS, the plasmoid that had displayed as installed (with the Uninstall button) now does not appear to have been installed (button says Install).
