This issue cannot be resolved in kubuntu- default- settings. It is impossible to access the plugin type of a plasmoid from within the scripting interface if the plasmoid itself is not available anymore. So, our update script runs across the plasmoid but will find an empty type, making it impossible to determine the former type of that widget (FTR there are also no other means to access this information from within the scripting interface).
Thus I recommend that the plasma- widget- message- indicator gets a kconf_update file that changes the plugin name in plasma's applets config to the new name. The update script will then find the plugin once plasma gets restarted and can move it to the systray, as well as traverse all the configurations there.
