This removes the theme editor thing in the Desktop Theme KCM.

Most settings in there are either broken or useless nowadays.

The only setting I would miss is different Analog Clock faces which could be done in the Analog Clock directly. What I am missing in general is a custom Panel color/texture or something like that which we don't have in here anyway.

Tab gone.

While at it I also replaced the status label with a proper KMessageWidget

Refraining from personal comments, there is a question related to this regarding the documentation:

https://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kde-doc-english/2016-April/013341.html

I would add: is there a document that explain how to achive the same (create a theme, possibly inheriting the base from existing themes)? Is this enough? https://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Plasma5/ThemeDetails

  1. I'm actually devastaed by that change. The feature was a bit buggy but still one was able to achive desired effects. I was able to change kde inside (how it works) and outside (how it looks) but now the half of it is kiled :/.
    KDE is loosing it's identity :(
    Why someone who is not using cetain feature thinks that others do the same or assumes that others hate it too? Please, fix it, change it but bring it back!
