You should have the magnifying glass under each Activity.

I've no idea why your cashew is missing - it's on every one here, although for
some reason, one of them is quite faint, while the others are bright.

For each desktop, right-click and select Add Widgets. Add the widgets
relevant to the activity you intend for that desktop.
Remember that your desktops now act independently. You can have leisure-
related widgets on a different desktop from your work-related ones.
If that's not what you meant by 'plasmoid launcher', describe a bit more what
you want.
