Cool KDE Plasma Tip: Quickly access task manager apps with [Meta] + [number]

@kde@floss.social's task manager usually lives in the panel located by default at the bottom of your desktop (see attached image).

Quickly open or display apps shown in the task manager by holding down the [Meta] (aka "Windows") key and hitting one of the number keys at the top of your keyboard.

Reach the first app on the left with [Meta] + [1], the second from the left with [Meta] + [2], etc.

Right... Amarok has been kinda semi-abandoned for some time. Obviously these two, Task Manager and Amarok, had overlapping shortcuts and nobody realised.

There are Clementine and Strawberry that are forks of the old Amarok, but not from KDE. The current music player from KDE is Elisa.
