Yes, very closely. Its  links to
 
<https://www.datamation.com/open-source/how-to-setup-kde-activities.html>,
 
<https://www.datamation.com/open-source/what-makes-a-classic-linux-desktop-classic-1.html>, 
and
   <https://www.maketecheasier.com/use-kde-plasma-activities/>
are also valuable.

Asking on a local users group led to
   <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiseat_configuration>
and <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_Window_System>
which outlines what has to happen behind the scenes to have the
user experience I want.

There is reading/re-reading in my future.
Thank you.
