Fix editing items in SimpleFavoritesModel
ClosedPublic

Summary

tools.js is supposed to support both KaStatsFavoritesModel (used for
favorite applications) and SimpleFavoritesModel (used for system actions,
like poweroff/reboot/logout). The latter did not work though, as tools.js
unconditionally calls methods only present in KaStatsFavoritesModel.
This commit makes KaStatsFavoritesModel API compatible to SimpleFavoritesModel
and changes the relevant code in tools.js to support both.

Additionally, this syncs applets/kickoff/package/contents/code/tools.js again.

BUG: 385463

Test Plan

Before this patch it wasn't possible to remove system actions from
the favorites bar.

Someone needs to have a look at the kickoff tools.js diff - it got out of sync apparently.

Built with the above patch, and on quick testing it seems to resolve the issue for me. I am not a user of activities, so my testing there to make sure existing behaviour on the standard favourites was still the same, may not be as thorough as desirable.

I don't understand the comment; are you explaining why you're using unshift instead of concat?

Please make sure the spam is gone (console.log), etc.

The "this crashes Qt" comment": That was written by Ivan originally.

Please make sure and test that this patch works with both kinds of favorites.

I'm travelling and am indisposed currently.

re. the comments: I did not write any of that, it simply got added by the tools.js sync. If this is supposed to be removed, please tell Ivan.
I did test this patch for all types of favorites, but not in relation to activities as I'm not too familiar with them.

I don't like this change. Would rather have this stated explicitly than rely on the implementation in the favmodel. Can you make this part also aware of which model is behind the favoriteModel variable?

Somehow I didn't submit the comment when I wrote it. See above.

With yet another `_kicker_favorite_remove_from_any``` method? I did a search for removeFavorite and it's not used outside of this file, so the API should be as minimal as possible IMO.
