Why does/should it take at least 5 steps to add a widget? (lemm.ee)

I just noticed today that if I needed to add a new widget to my desktop/panel, I had to right click on the desktop/panel, enter edit mode/show panel configuration, click on "add or manage widgets, click on "Get new" then click on "download new plasma widget" THEN the store opens then I searched for the widget I needed. Then you are in this limbo state where the desktop is in edit mode, but you can still type into the store. Then if I wanted to add that widget to my desktop, I'd have to go back to the "add or manage widgets" and click it again and then find the new widget. Why so many steps to add one thing? Or I can go into Discover to look for it, install it and then repeat most of those steps I already mentioned. Am I the only one? I can't be, can I?

It is indeed true that the overall mechanism of handling widgets is bothersome.
