           Summary: Desktop context menu lost after adding entry under

SUMMARY

Right-click on the desktop -> Configure Desktop and Wallpaper -> Mouse Actions

There was exactly one rule defined for the right mouse button - I guess it read
open context menu, but I don't remember.

I've clicked on the "Add Action" button and interestingly the only entry
("right click") vanished and instead I had comboboxes to choose a mouse button
and a desired action.

Weird UI? Bug? Anyway, choosing "Scroll desktop" with "Mouse wheel" and hitting
apply, there was only this entry now shown.

_Finally I closed the window, noticed that I could now scroll with the wheel
trough the VDs, but the context menu to configure the desktop does not open
anymore._

Also I don't find any option in the System Settings to change this behavior
now!
Krunner doesn't give me any relevant results when I search for "configure
desktop" or "desktop settings".

In my opinion it would make sense to put all these settings into System
Settings, then it'd be easier to find the settings

as of https://lwn.net/Articles/963851/

and I'd likely not have the issue with a lost context menu.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Right-click on the desktop -> Configure Desktop and Wallpaper -> Mouse
Actions
2. Click on "Add Action" button
3. Add any action for any button, eg as above Switch VDs with Vertical Scroll
Wheel
4. Hit apply

OBSERVED RESULT
-> 2. The only defined right click rule is no longer shown
-> 4. Only the rule defined in 3. is shown
The desktop context menu is gone.
