Which desktop widget?

[Celeste Lyn Paul]

Hello everyone, 

I just wanted a quick discussion about Bug 389747 In default KDE panel use 
Show Desktop instead of Show Dashboard widget.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/389747

Description: We should use the Show Desktop widget instead of Show Dashboard. 
The problem is that some users are confusing Show Dashboard with the Show 
Desktop functionality like in Windows. The widgets have similar but different 
functionality and it seems like more people want Show Desktop than Show 
Dashboard (probably because more people are familiar with the Windows function 
than the dashboard concept. We don’t configure multiple activities by default 
in Kubuntu (yet) and so the Dashboard concept hasn’t been really pushed on 
non-KDE-power-users yet. Having both on the panel by default is problematic 
because they look very similar.

+1 -1?
