Switch from tabs for pressed applets to tasks.
Alternatively, a hover view-item effect could be used, especially since the panel margin could be higher in third party themes.

To make it stretch to the borders, simply just remove padding from panel.svgz and from the Plasmoid highlight SVG.
But themes should be able to set their padding, I can't just remove it. Rather, I was trying to give the effect a negative margin equal to the panel margin size.
...but that does not seem simple and would be inconsistent with the task view, so we might want to leave that for another patch
This is more semantically correct and a visual improvement IMO. Looks fine to me with Breeze dark and light but we should probably wait for confirmation from heavy Breeze Dark users.
I think it's fine as-is with the built-in margins, though removing them in the SVG is fine; changing the appearance of the plasma theme SVGs doesn't impact third-party themes at all. And obviously that needs to be done in a separate patch anyway since the SVG lives in a different repo.
Actually, after some use, I don't think this is the best effect to use. I will investigate more.
This will utterly break with every third party theme.
If we were to do this we would need to introduce a dedicated "applet is open" highlight item or some property to tell it to use tasks for that purpose.
