So basically like it is now, except I add an overlay saying "Uninstalled" with a more prominent Undo button.

I chose to always show it rather than on hover since only a few applets are likely to be uninstallable and I don't want to play the guessing-game, perhaps we should introduce a filter for "User-installed applets" similar to the (less useful) "running" ones. Clicking the button will queue the uninstallation which can be cancelled anytime the dialog is still opened. As soon as the dialog closes, the actual uninstall is executed.
