Launcher: Coordinate and create a way to categorize / cluster / subfolderize apps in the drawer

Feature request, backed by a bounty:

  • Use an existing mock-up or design your own mock-up that shows how apps in the launcher's drawer can be categorized (via XDG categories, maybe with the option to adjust things via drag'n'drop later)
  • Communitate your approach to the UBports UX team and adjust your approach
  • Implement the approach / design idea in QML

Examples (unknown author, for Ubuntu Touch):
