gratuitous. can be implemented in someone else's clock.

> 165416 - Zoom/Crop Analog Clock in Panel

nope.

> 169130 - Manually Set Font Size
> 185588 - Manually Set Font Size

nope.

> 184179 - Display timezone at top of clock not bottom

nope.

> 185665 - Ability to always have calendar widget on top

nope.

would be nice to be able to have extenders in floating windows, but not 
interested in doing it for the clock alone. and no plans to implement such a 
feature for extenders myself.

> 186692 - Option to remove border

nope. guy is wrong anyways -> it would still use that room, and then you 
wouldn't easily be able to see it anyways.

> 186913 - Show temperature

haha. no.

> 193747 - Show more than 1 month in calendar

no.

> 193925 - Show seconds in on-hover pop-up

sure, could be done.

> 199999 - Show date in analog clock

sure

> 204198 - Let user choose side-by-side or stacked mode

no. impossible to do with free scaling.

> 210613 - Ability to independently set 12/24 hour time display

nope. desktop wide settings.

> 224344 - Ability to turn off week numbers

not worth the configuration UI imho.

> 255344 - Add close button to calendar pop-up

this should be a general extender popup thing if it is set to be passive (and 
so doesn't auto-disappear on close). iow, it's a libplasma bug.

world clock belongs with marble. fuzzy clock should have its own component in 
plasma.
