SUMMARY
If adding the KDE kickoff plasmoid to the desktop it makes the desktop crash.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add the org.kde.plasma.kickoff plasmoid to your desktop
2. See it crash

OBSERVED RESULT
The desktop is still loaded and controllable for a maximum of 1 to 2 seconds but crashes afterwards again and again until no more restart is done.

EXPECTED RESULT
- Adds the addon to the desktop but doesn't load it (no plasma 6 compatibility)
- Doesn't add the addon at al as no plasma 6 compatibility

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
(available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a terminal window)
Linux/KDE Plasma: 6.8.0-31-generic (64-bit)
KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.5.0
Qt Version: 6.6.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
As this is an official kde plasmoid and plasma 6 was added to at least kubuntu devel, it should be supported in my opinion. However, as more and more plasmoids may fail to load or have no compatibility, it may be good to prepare the plasma desktop itself against such crashing it.
