I think that is a separate issue, and seems to happen some of the times, like
you are saying. I've pinned down the one I'm seeing a bit more, and can
describe it as this:
1. Start plasma and move an icon in the icons only task manager (iotm), any
icon will do, though the problem may be clearer (as you'll see) if you pick an
icon towards the right of the iotm and move it somewhere to a new position also
on the right of the iotm.
Result- A specific number of icons on the left of the iotm move, we'll
call the number of visible icon slots that rearrange themselves X, and the
portion of the taskbar that is rearranging itself the "Carousel".
2. Move any icon not on the carousel into another position not on the carousel.
That icon should move into it's correct slot. If it doesn't the first time,
then I think that's where the bug you're noting comes in. That bug has also
happened inconsistently for me.
Result- All the icons in the Carousel move themselves one slot to the
right. The rightmost icon in the Carousel will disappear, and a new icon for a
previously hidden app appears in the leftmost slot of the Carousel. There
appear to be X visible icon slots, for X+1 apps in the Carousel. You can
repeat step 2 many times and the results will be the same, although once I did
get it to stop after many repeats. But I haven't been able to replicate that.
3. Move an item that was not on the Carousel into the Carousel
Result- it will slot into the Carousel at the position it belongs at,
including the movement of the Carousel, i.e.- one slot to the right of the slot
you put it in. The icon that was in position X originally is now off the
Carousel at position X+1, and will not move anymore. X has not changed.
4. Move an item off of the carousel.
Result- Icon will move to the proper slot off of the carousel. The
carousel stays X slots wide, and grabs the icon that was previously in slot X+1
and throws it into motion.
5. Move Carousel items around on the Carousel
Result- Items move into the proper slot on the Carousel, accounting for the
movement of the Carousel each time an icon is moved.
6. Log out and start over at step 1.
Result- X may change, though doesn't always.
