plasma dashboard?

In 11.1, there’s an option to show the plasma dashboard. When I select
it, the kicker disappears and a little inverted tab appears at the top
of the screen that says “Plasma” or something like that. But as soon as
I click anywhere it disappears and the kicker comes back. Can someone
explain what is supposed to happen? KDE 4.1 is the goofiest thing…
