Bookmarked activities (OT: Activities on Plasma2)

Hello,

I think there should be some option in current activitybar applet
which allows to select which activities to show?

P.S. If you will kill activitybar, my first KDE/Plasma contribution
(Porting activitybar to QML) will never go public! :'(

Thanks!
