Apart from one thing -- knetload & kcpuload when clicked on, produced a
text window with the actual data rate or  cpu usage. The plasma widgets
I've tried don't do that and since the network one autoscales it's hard
to use for more than "is anything happening or not". 

Also; to put widgets in the panel, right-click on the panel, and follow
the menus. On the desktop, again a right click and menu is an
alternative.
