Bug Demonstration: https://youtu.be/EIKQcxcCmyQ

Dragging Plasmoids out of the panel is often not successful.

A. Most of the time the plasmoid tweaks out and fails to relocate to the desktop.

B. Sometimes the plasmoid enters a hidden area of the panel which is not visible

C. Eventually the Plasmoid will break and have no header bar and no longer respond to drag & drop operations until plasma-shell is restarted.

In the case of this video showcasing the behavior, I attempt to have a left and right panel on the bottom and drag Plasmoids in and out and to the other Panel.

Requested Fixes:

1. Fix Drag & Drop In and Out of the Panel

2. Don't Allow Plasmoids to be relocated to a invisible part of the panel.

3. (Extra) In the case of the System Tray, I would like the Panel to expand if it isn't large enough to the a minimum size according to the required width of the Plasmoids the panel contains. Eg: The Bottom Right panel should have a minimum size of System Tray + Clock and whatever else is in there it can't go below.

Should this not be filed under Product "plasmashell" Component "Panel" ?

libplasma and frameworks-plasma is more for the Plasma's internal library.
