Request: modify the Run Command plugin, or make another one based on it, to display items in a grid rather than in the current list form.

The reason is KDE Connect can already run scripts or commands and thats awesome but I often have to scroll through my list to select something. If I could have it in a grid format then I could see more items at once. The current max on my phone is 9 items but with a grid it could be many more.

I'd also like for this grid to have multiple pages in a profile form where depending on what I am doing I could have different items in the grid.

Finally, I'd like the ability to modify the color of the grid items so they are quickly identifiable at a glance. It would even be cooler if images could be used for say example icons.

Essentially, this would allow KDE Connect to turn a phone or a tablet into an alternative to the El Gato Stream Deck. You can already kind of do it now with the command list but if these were done it would pretty much eliminate the need for a stream deck. :D
