There literally was an implementation that was dropped, and I think it is clear that a PR for a better one would be dropped too.
Instead, GNOME users can stare at an empty panel, while KDE Plasma saves screen space and still has a panel with apps and all needed infos.
Hey, I have it on good authority that apparently users get confused and freeze up like myotonic goats if there's more than three icons in the panel.
What PR? And what about the missing API that satisfies every/most desktops' needs?
And any GNOME user who needs that can use the extension. I don't really get the point, apart from philosophy, which doesn't really make sense here since nothing perfect exists yet, which GNOME seemingly doesn't like implementing. Maybe some work towards that would be good, but I'm just someone using software for free, without paying anything.
