KDE developers haven't let up ahead of the holidays in their relentless work for improving the KDE desktop and contained applications.

- Support for including tags in the search criteria of Dolphin.

- Support for toggling the Do-Not-Disturb mode via a keyboard shortcut with Plasma 5.18.

- The Dolphin SVN commit dialog support was restored.

- QML applications are now more responsive when changing the font size and the UI elements set to scale based upon the font size.

- Plasma notifications when connected Bluetooth devices are very low on battery.

- Fixes for notifications when you need to log into a captive portal page for a public network.

- Various other user-interface refinements and bug fixes.
