Cleaning up plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc

Hi all. Is there a tool that can be used to clean up ~/.config/plasma-
org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc (other than deleting it and recreating my 
desktop setup from scratch)? 

Mine has many "containments" and applets that are no longer visible on the 
desktop, but still in the file. For example, there are 4 instances of 
"plugin=org.kde.plasma.systemmonitor.diskusage" and associated configurations 
in the file, but only 1 visible on the desktop (although I do have 4 virtual 
desktops, but I don't use activities at the moment).

How do I determine which of these is actually the active configuration and 
which (if any) can be deleted?

The desktop now takes anywhere from 30-60 seconds to load after the splash 
screen fades to black. In that time I can use alt-F2 to open apps and they 
open with the correct window decorations, transparency, window effects etc. 
but the wallpaper, applets and panels don't appear until they're good and 
ready. In the mean time, its apps opened from alt-f2 on a black screen. 

There appears to be a lot of crud left over in this file from applets that 
have been removed from the desktop or from times when an applet has either 
crashed or failed to load and has been re-added to the desktop, but the old 
configuration still hangs around. 

Yes, I could move this file somewhere else and recreate my desktop from 
scratch, but I'd rather not if I don't have to. Any other suggestions as to 
how to clean it up will be gratefully received.

Regards,
Rodney.
