Description Krešimir Čohar 2022-09-08 10:42:31 UTC 
SUMMARY
The plasma shell crashes if "Add Widgets..." is clicked on if there are multiple panels on the screen. This happens on X and on Wayland.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Add multiple panels (top, bottom, left)
2. Right click on any of the panels or on the desktop and select Add Widgets...

OBSERVED RESULT
Several possible outcomes:
(1) Nothing happens. No Widget Explorer present on the screen.
(2) The shell crashes and restarts itself. Clicking Add Widgets... again leads to the same outcome.
(3) The shell crashes, all the windows on the screen disappear and they can only be brought back by restarting kwin_x11 (not plasmashell). On Wayland, restarting kwin also crashes the session. 

EXPECTED RESULT
The Widget Explorer appears.
