KDE Plasma 6.6 Lets Users Create Custom Global Themes From Current Settings (linuxiac.com)

KDE developers continue preparing Plasma 6.6, and although there are over a month to go before the final stable release (scheduled for February 17, 2026), the team posts weekly updates on the KDE Blogs about what changes to expect from this version. After I covered some of them recently, now we have a new batch to look at.

One of the most notable recent additions is the ability to save the current visual configuration as a new global theme. Users can now capture their active color, window decoration, icon, and other appearance settings directly from System Settings, simplifying theme creation and reuse without manual component selection.

Oh nice, I think I've used that theme.
I was imagining something a little different.
I had in mind something like xfce's XML files where settings can be locked at the system level, so when they're generated at the user level, those individual settings refuse to be masked.
I think for Plasma I'd need a script that runs after the theme has been changed that flips the "group-by" setting back to "never".
