I thought of all the extra buttons that each plugin has and I thought
that it needed to be trimmed and organized a bit. The current selection
shows icons next to each item, whereas this design does not. However, I
can see that being there, just not the current icons since they are from
another era. I hope the idea here is understood.

Awesome as always!
One thing I was thinking of: Would it make sense to just show the config icons
when hovering over a plugin (like Plasma-NM does with connections)? That could
allow us to show even multiple icons per plugin without cluttering the UI.

The user interface options won't be there for now, if I understood the other
mails in this thread correctly.

However, Vishesh would also like to put the configuration of the shortcut for
KRunner in the KCM (which makes sense to me). Could you include that in your
mockup, too? That would be great!

My impression is that it would not work. For the reason that the plugins on the search are vast and configurable. You would have to provide a very unique icon to represent each plugin. In my opinion the plugin name, description, icon adds to one kind of identity that you can't have with only icons. Plus hover/discover is not very clear cut IMHO. The idea of concealing icons and then adding a hover action to reveal more controls adds a complexity to the list that probably is too much already for what the list does.
