SUMMARY Some app image apps can offer to add themselves to Kickoff (eg. the Synfig Studio appimage). If the user deletes the .appimage file Kickoff will have an entry for an application that doesn't exist anymore. Plasma shows a notification telling the user it couldn't find the app, but in order to remove the app from the menu the user needs to manually use the Menu Editor and remove the app entry. Offer a "Delete shortcut" right in the notification so the user can get rid of dead app shortcuts without having to resort to the Menu Editor. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Download the Synfig Studio appimage: https://www.fosshub.com/Synfig.html 2. Execute and it will ask you if you want to integrate it into the system. Click yes 3. Delete the .appimage file 4. Launch Synfig Studio from the newly created Kickoff shortcut OBSERVED RESULT Plasma notifies the user the program file couldn't be found but it doesn't show any obvious way of removing the dead shortcut. EXPECTED RESULT Offer a "Delete shortcut" right in the notification (or a window).
