Hi. I've been thinking about some ideas to create a new kind of plasma shell for some time right now and I want to get this out of my sole head, whether it is feasible, desirable, good or none of these. Mockups[1] will explain better.
But, basically, I'm based on the idea that the desktop is invisible for most of the time and that a panel is only needed when there's a window which could cover all of the widgets on the desktop. Then, I want to create a more dynamic plasma shell, in which the plasmoids will adapt themselves to the windows arragement and that also does not need a panel. Also, windows wouldn't be much different from plasmoids. Instead, they would arrange themselves as plasmoids, if desirable. Note that this isn't meant to replace plasma-desktop, it's just meant to be a nice concept desktop that may, someday, give birth to some good ideas for the other plasma shells. Cheers.
