  An application launcher of some sort (besides KRunner) seems to be missing

Both macOS and Windows 10 have right screen edge sidebars that only appear when a button in one of the default panels is clicked. I like this quite a lot. It's much nicer than having the sidebar panel auto-hide and appear when the screen edge is touched with the cursor. since that leads to tons of accidental activations of a large panel that covers up a lot of the screen--including the window decoration buttons, which breaks your ability to fling the cursor into the top-right corner and click to quickly close a window.
  
  
  I think such a panel type would be nice, but how would adding such a panel work in terms of UX since it inherently relies on something other than itself by design?
