for plasmoids thatare not possible as qml only, i think they should be hybrid: 
c++ applet with qml user interface. there are several of them as example, like 
the pager or the weather ones.

if something that can't be directly done in qml makes sense as common 
component an import can be made, but i would like to avoid them as much as 
possible (remember, as soon you put anything usable with import org.kde.foo 
you have the responsibility to maintain it with retrocompatibility just as it 
was a public library, and should *not* be taken lightly ;)

Cheers,
Marco Martin
