Sorry... left out the videos showing this on various Linux distros:

Mint Cinnamon: <https://youtu.be/Zv61hNe9lwU>
Maui (KDE):    <https://youtu.be/ODwxQGNYnk8>

Do not talk about it in the video, but with KDE I do go into more detail
elsewhere as to what went wrong... I was simply faster than the UI. Keep in
mind this was on a VM so there may be speed issues from there, but it is
still not designed as well as Cinnamon.
