I feel that VLC fits into Plasma just as Clementine does.
Given that, Clementine is an actual music player, with
collections manager and music specific plugins and nice
systray icon and works with our mpris2 controller and
fetches lyrics and artist info and offers internet streaming
by default and Spotify integration and is a music player,
above all.
VLC is primarily a video player, using it for playing music
works, but it's not its primary use case, making it lesser
app when compared to Clementine (or Cantata, even).
