I don't see the point. KLibFactory doesn't produce components (which would
mean return type QUnknownInterface), it produces QObjects. The notion of a
component is very precisely defined in the Qt documentation, so you
certainly do not help someone learning the API when you overload a term
with an additional meaning.
