That turns out to be fatally buggy: every time I reboot (rare, but does
happen when an update requires it) plasma crashes (considerably more
frequent than a reboot) and restarts, that plasmoid fails to reload the
configuration information. It won't even restart properly even after
manually reloading the configuration information. I have to add a new
instantiation of the plasmoid and remove the old one :-(

Is there another plasmoid that performs this function and perhaps is more
reliable?
