[Bug 538136] Re: message indicator doesn't move from panel to systray on upgrade

[Harald Sitter]

This issue cannot be resolved in kubuntu-default-settings. It is
impossible to access the plugin type of a plasmoid from within the
scripting interface if the plasmoid itself is not available anymore. So,
our update script runs across the plasmoid but will find an empty type,
making it impossible to determine the former type of that widget (FTR
there are also no other means to access this information from within the
scripting interface).

Thus I recommend that the plasma-widget-message-indicator gets a
kconf_update file that changes the plugin name in plasma's applets
config to the new name. The update script will then find the plugin once
plasma gets restarted and can move it to the systray, as well as
traverse all the configurations there.
