It would be nice if KDE could consolidate the config files into the

I wonder why the upstream didn't choose $HOME/.config/plasma for config files
instead of using the base directory.
As far as clearing an app's config/data Android's approach is much superior.
Options like 'Clear Data' and 'Clear Cache' in either System Settings or
Discover to reset apps is much more user friendly then hunting for random
config files. Deleting config files can create more unintended problems like
