If you turn on "Show Page Names" in the Settings menu does it then show the
right page names?

This only indicates that something about that option or the
documentation can be improved. It's no stupidity from your side.

Git commit 9a4f36f6973d6f9d712b6b3b1ff30f868d9910b9 by Dan Vrátil.
Committed on 06/03/2015 at 13:30.
Pushed by dvratil into branch 'Plasma/5.2'.

KDED: Make Generator maximally fool-proof

This change adds lots of checks (and asserts for devs) on validity of
the configs, outputs and modes and makes sure that we never try to
dereference a null pointer from outputs or modes.

Also renames some variables to make the code cleaner and easier to
understand.
