The new KRunner integration is great, but sometimes a bit frustrating to me:
I have 2 monitors, and a hotcorner on both to open Parachute. The search field appears on both, but only the primary screen's field is focused, so keyboard input is picked up by the primary screen, and results are displayed there only. It would be rather convenient if they would appear on every screen, or instead of the primary screen, the keyboard focus would follow the mouse, and the results would appear on the screen Parachute was activated from or on which the mouse cursor resides.
For anyone who is not happy with this behavior, there could be a config option regarding where to show results.
Note: When the text field on the secondary display is manually clicked after activating Parachute, it gains focus and results are shown on the secondary screen. It would just be nicer not to have to do that extra click, just hit the corner and type.
I saw that I have access to which screen is with the active window, but not which screen is with the mouse cursor. I'm wondering if it would be worth to find out the latter manually at the time of activation.
