Well I could certainly try that. I am downloading the iso to try Plasma
Active in VirtualBox and then I'll take a look at it.
Do you have any ideas as to why the Plasma::Dialog isn't working as
expected?

Meanwhile, I wanted to ask a few questions on proposing the idea on the KDE
Project list page.
In regard to the project, do I mention all the implementations details ?
Like a view for the list has to be implemented, the UI has to be improved,
once the widget works properly with LibreOffice then it would be extended
to other applications..
Or am I supposed to mention only the overview of the project, like what it
is and what is to be achieved, and all other implementation details have to
be put in the proposal for the project ?

And do I have to get the idea approved by some person before it is
submitted to KDE or is put on the ideas page ?
Or simply editing the wiki would do ?

And if you have any more use cases in mind for the widget, please do share,
so that I can think on it and include it in the project idea. :)

Sorry for the bare questions, I'm a newbie at proposing a project. :)

Thank you!
