Plasma Framework: Discussion Configuration dialogs
Open, Needs TriagePublic

Description

plasmoids do their configuration dialogs in their own "special" and kinda ugly way.
shoud there be something at kconfig level providing a central way for our configuration in QML?

I assume by "ugly" you mean in terms of the code. Visually, they're almost indistinguishable from config windows using KPageDialog that lack "Help", "Defaults", and "Reset" buttons.

I cleaned up the code for the applet config stuff a bit in https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-desktop/-/commit/4afadec2053ee8a44ecaf4124151d78f6c309872

While doing that I thought it may make sense to have the applet config stuff use the KCM QML components (SimpleKCM, ScrollViewKCM etc). That would require breaking compatibility though
