STEPS TO REPRODUCE
*   Attempt to install Android software via Discover like the Microsoft Store allows.
*   Attempt to uninstall Android software installed via WayDroid via Discover or `plasmashell` despite the Windows Shell providing the ability to do so, and Discover supporting uninstallation of other virtualized package types (Snap & Flatpak).

RESULT
Discover can't uninstall and manage software installed to a WayDroid instance, despite it only needing to send `adb` or `adb shell pm` commands to the WayDroid host. This would be satisfactory initially, but obviously proper support wouldn't stop there – Discover would (eventually) need to be able to discover and install software via F-Droid (the de-facto package manager atop `pm` like `apt` is for `dpkg`).

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The idea is not mine; it has 606 upvotes at https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/svdcbb/comment/hxfbsaq/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3. I'm posting it because I don't believe anyone bothered to seriously ask whether this is feasible.
