Hello,

I use Kde for working and the activity bar is great. But I noticed it lacks things for my work flow. I was thinking it could be great
if it were more like Firefox/Chrome tab bar and have some other enhancements:

1. An option to arrange activities by drag and drop operation. The order should persist after restart.
2. An option to right click a specific activity tab and have a fast way to change activity name and icon
3. An + icon on the right in the activity bar that pressing it would create a new default activity in the same moment.
4. A setting to make the bar shows on tabs only the icons, or text, or both.

I understand that my work flow maybe is not what activities were meant to be used for. I use them as one activity per project I'm
working on, an activity for web and media, and different activities for different topics I'm researching which have many tabs of Firefox
in each of them. I don't open and delete much during the day but when I do, it feels cumbersome and sluggish.

My questions:
1. Are those requirements applicable to be coded in the current activity bar widget or should something like that be coded as a new widget?
2. Is it appropriate to offer bounty for this and what is the best way to do this and how ( here, freelancer sites...). Currently I can't start
investing the time to learn and dig in the code so I was thinking to offer a 100$ for a job/bounty for that kind of widget.

Thank you
