Plasma Team meeting, 10-7-2017

Present: kbroulik, Sho, notmart, d_ed, bshah, sebas

kbroulik:

kbroulik, which package is this for? Plasmashell?
FireBurn|Work: plasma-workspace
* One can have left-button containment actions in conjunction with FolderView now (rubberband ate the event)
patch went from 200 loc to a mere 1 plus a comment eventually :D
