Description Nate Graham 2023-06-08 20:11:44 UTC 
When using it to switch to an alternative applet, the old applet disappears, but the selected new one is never created. Console log shows the following output when it happens, which looks extremely suspicious:

Jun 08 14:09:25 Liberator plasmashell[676561]: QMetaObject::invokeMethod: No such method ContainmentInterface_QML_159::createApplet(QString,QVariantList,QPoint)
                                               Candidates are:
                                                   createApplet(QString,QVariantList,QRectF)

Adapt to api changes

ContainmentItem createApplet with a qpoint parameter is gone
use now the proper containment api, removing usage of invokemethod
making it much more robust
