Ignoring previous tickets for now, this ticket as its own instance was
originally opened May 2022 by William. His report was that when icons are
placed on a desktop and plasmashell is restarted, said icons scramble. This
issue, as a standalone bug, is still an issue.

If this ticket is closed somebody is just going to open another, reporting the
same problem, and we're going to go through all of this again until it's again
closed in this utterly ridiculous cycle.

I totally appreciate this isn't a simple fix but we can't just keep on closing
these tickets and expecting the problem to be resolved somewhere else. Apart
from anything else, opening multiple tickets for what is essentially the same
problem just makes KDE as a whole appear buggier than it really is, in terms of
number of but reports at least.

This, and all other related tickets, should be left unresolved, grouped, and
cross referenced so that when related issues are resolved, developers can check
whether these reports are also resolved and tick them off when that time comes,
otherwise leaving them open for somebody to pick up at some point.

That's how bug tracking works.
