Plasma-Application_Launcher-Places-Frequently_Used

SUMMARY
When we open "Places (bottom bar) -> Frequently Used", we will see following sections: "Applications", "Folders", "Files". I think "Applications" are not "places", so should be placed in different section. I think better would be to see it in main window (top left corner), just after "Favorites", "All Application", as third option.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Click "Application Launcher"
2. Click "Places" (bottom bar)
3. Click "Frequently Used

OBSERVED RESULT
Mixed Applications and Places (Folder, Files)

EXPECTED RESULT
Should be there only places like "Folder" and "Files" and "Applications could be in main window (top left corner), just after "Favorites", "All Application", as third option.
