The code tried hard to ignore garbage URLs, as Qt is quite lenient, e.g. QUrl("Garbage Url") is still valid.
There is no way to change the strictness of a QUrl after creation,
so the code would enforce it by doing QUrl strictUrl(inputUrl.toString(), QUrl::StrictMode).
However, toString() defaults to PrettyDecoded which avoids percent-encoding and keeps spaces
in tact which is not a valid thing to have in a strict URL.
Effectively, we want to ensure a URL is either a valid path to a local file,
or one of the special applications (for menu ids), or preferred for preferred applications, like web browser,
BUG: 385727
FIXED-IN: 5.18.0
Differential Revision: https://phabricator.kde.org/D26941
- The URL in the configuration file now contains also the list
of activities it should be shown in
- The configuration format is backwards compatible
- Added API to differentiate between the shown launchers (for
the current activity), and all configured launchers
- Supports reordering of the launchers
Testing: It needs the ivan/per-activity-launchers branch of
plasma-workspace because of the API changes
