I think one potential idea as well, is to maybe modify how the hidden, shown,
and categories list works, and decouple them all to different lists

That way, you can have the categories alphabetically ordered, and define the
icons to be defined by two configs, one for when it's hidden, and one for when
it's shown, potentially followed by reverting to an alphabetical listing for
anything that isn't defined in those configs.

Maybe for a future plasma version though, if it would be a lot of work to
rewrite all of that.
