To be honest, I didn't quite understand how to hook to the creation of a new
applet?

But by the way, as far as I know, these scripts will change the values in the
`plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc` file in the same way as if they were
changed by the user himself.

And this differs from the default values in the sense that if the system
administrator or system integrator then makes new changes to the default
configuration of applets, they will not automatically change for the user,
since old values will be explicitly written in
`plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc'.

And it will be difficult to distinguish which values were set by the scripts
last time, and which values were set by the user himself.

But if we change the default values in main.xml, then it will automatically
upload new changes for the default settings, unless the user has manually set
their own value through the interface, which is saved in
`plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc`.
