Description
In menu:
- You can add an application in a panel or on the Desktop, even when it's already added in this panel:
- You can remove an application from Favorites but not from a Panel nor from Desktop:
Idea: replacing Add to panel by Remove from panel when this application is already added in the panel and Add to desktop by Remove from desktop when this application is already added on the desktop.
Questions:
-
When there are more than a panel, how to choose in which panel adding the application?
-
How to move an application from a panel to another?

Research direction
Start in the menu handling for the Add to panel, Add to desktop, and corresponding removal actions described in the issue. Clarify how multiple panels should be selected and how moving an application between panels should work; done means duplicate additions are prevented and the relevant add/remove actions behave consistently for panels and the desktop.
