Calculator misleading cursor
The "Calculator" Plasma widget doesn't allow editing the input, despite the
hover mouse cursor being the shape of an insertion point.
I think strict skeumorphism doesn't help at all here. This software runs on a
computer, not a physical calculator. It's fine to simulate the interface, but
to forbid features a computer allows, like placing the cursor arbitrarily in
the input, I find to be counter-productive.
I had to install GNOME calculator, along with a few hundred megs of flatpak
dependencies, in order to simply be able to edit the formula I had typed in the
calculator.
(Not sure where to file this - the process name is "plasmawindowed" but I don't
see a "Calculator" component in this "plasmashell" product.)
