Seems sensible.

Any ideas what should be in the compact representation?
Comment 2 Daffa Mumtaz 2019-10-09 10:24:29 UTC 
It should look like the calculator plasmoid, display all of its content when it's big, but when it's resized small enough (e.g. moved to a panel), it'll put the content on a pop up and only display its icon. Just let me know if you need a mockup
Comment 3 Murz 2021-02-08 06:59:52 UTC 
Very often we need to group several plasmoids into some popup panel (eg multiple Toggle buttons using Advanced On/Off Switch), which are accessible via button in main Plasma panel. 

Implementing collapsing Grouping Plasmoid  to button in panel, with popout the full panel on click - will be great solution for this!

Examples of panel widgets with popups: Qalculate!, Media Controller, Translator, Advanced Display Settings, and many others.
