    Summary:
    This is one of the tasks on the Plasma 5.9 release todo, as
    agreed at the kick-off meeting. Dashboard is about enabling
    an alternative fullscreen workflow for people who want one,
    and this extends the coverage to widget management. It's also
    a widget management workflow many people are used to from
    their phone.
    
    This is quite early code, but already works fairly nicely.
    There's even polish like pre-loading the widget explorer model
    as soon as the tab is hovered to speed up the tab switch, and
    keyboard nav is working, too.
    
    I would like to get it reviewed now and merged once egregious
    technical founds are identified and eliminated. Please don't
    be too picky on the visual or even workflow details - one
    reason I want it merged early is so that I can get it into
    the VDG's hands via Neon for advice, and also because I want
    people to spend some time using it in general. It's early
    enough in the 5.9 cycle to iterate more.
