Totally agree. On my first mockups, I had a social and youtube tab to show
how to extend it, but some peoples said that it was not a good thing for the
proposal because I was not going to make it during it. Tabs are plasmoids in
activity. Any plasmoid can become an activity and any activity can become a
tab in my project. In the future, I (or other) will extend it to do those
things, it will be possible and easy to do. Even more than it is right now.
I just have to figure out a way to register tab that work great. A
systemsettings/desktop preferences dialog seem actually to be the best way,
but it have some limitations, like I said in my proposal.
