Reimplements the quicklaunch Kicker applet present in kde 3.5 as a plasmoid.

plasmoid-quicklauncher needs automoc4 0.9.87, right?

[Martin von Gagern (gagern)]

Sam Rog has a package for this in his PPA: https://launchpad.net/~samrog131/+archive

I uploaded the package to revu: http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/details.py?package=plasmoid-quicklauncher

There is a good chance that this will be included in KDE 4.2, so we may not need a separate package for it in Jaunty.
Marking as incomplete until we know for sure that it makes it in before feature freeze. If it doesn't make it I'd recommend that we take an svn snapshot of it around 4.2.0's release or so and package that up for Jaunty. but I think it will make it.

Please include it ASAP. KDE4 is a huge step back from 3.5. I bump to missing feature or bug every 10 minutes. I am so used to it and some users who have little experience with computers find it impossible to use their common applications if they are not in quick launch.

A quicklauncher plasmoid will be included with KDE 4.2, so a separate package for one will not be needed.
