ahahaha. I found the cause of *both* disappearances.
it was actually loading a null containment, because the containment didn't 
pass security. whoops. :)

it used to be that security just prevented the *user* from loading things and 
ignored what was already in the config file... when that hole was closed, it 
broke, and since the wallpaper and widgets still worked fine all I noticed was 
that I wasn't seeing a cashew. :)

anyways, since plasma likes to remove things it can't load, you'll all have to 
go fix your plasma-overlay-appletsrc now. setting plugin=saverdesktop for the 
containment should do the trick - or you can just remove the file if you don't 
mind losing your widget config.
