Does a bakery need smartcard login or LDAP though?

Here's a (somewhat superficial) list I gathered from various proposals and other conversations:

nicolasfella added a comment to T17395: Config KDE (and posibbly KDE core apps) via API.

The proposal talks about adding "API" for configuration management, but we already have means to do that (KConfig from C++ and CLI tools like kreadconfig/kwriteconfig).

nicolasfella added a comment to T17424: Make KDE work well for small businesses.

I think there is a lot of merit in targeting/improving business/enterprise use cases. The current proposal is a bit short/unspecific though. A combination of this and T11080 (and also T17448) could work well though. Is someone here interested in writing that up?

All application will have to come under the same API framework, so you won't have to config each application in a diffrent tools, or diffrent config files

nicolasfella added a comment to T17363: simplify 2024.

This assumes that removing functionality actually results in less resource utilization, which isn't necessarily the case

nicolasfella added a comment to T17448: Simplify maintainance, automation and remote assistance for Sysadmin.

This overlaps quite a bit with T17424

nicolasfella added a comment to T17408: Plasma - A Beacon for Open Design.

You can absolutely design an application layout without knowing how a button looks like. Arguably you even _must_ do that, because how the button is going to look like in the application won't be pixel-for-pixel identical to your design anyway, due to user-specific fonts/font sizes, color schemes, application themes, future design changes etc.

nicolasfella added a comment to T17408: Plasma - A Beacon for Open Design.

Generally I do think that we are lacking a design vision, so I welcome any proposal to address this

nicolasfella added a comment to T17370: Sandbox all the things!.

The technical points all have merit, but centering the goal around sandboxing is a bit odd. Sandboxing is a means to an end, where the end is mostly security (and to a degree reliability). Maybe we could rephrase the goal around that?

nicolasfella added a comment to T17396: Streamlined Application Development Experience.

To me it doesn't matter that much whether applications are first-party or third-party. The important (and more actionable for us) thing would be to make sure our application development story is as good as possible. An uptick in third-party applications would be a sing of us doing something right there.

nicolasfella added a comment to T17372: Refining and Enriching KDE: Empowering Users with Convenient and Intuitive Features.

A goal should be more than a list of your personal feature requests. It should articulate a vision for a specific topic/area of focus. Everyone should be able to look at the goal description and derive their own ideas/todo items from it.

Just giving a list of semi-related feature requests isn't particularly useful, we do have bugs.kde.org for that

I did update the description to fit a bit better.
I'm going to see, if there are already feature requests/ bug tickets for the examples of things to polish, and replace them with URLs to them. (and for the ones without a fitting one, I'm going to create one / tell the other people to create theirs for)

A goal is something the entire KDE community (which is far larger than just Plasma) should rally behind. A proposal that solely focuses on window management isn't really suitable for that
