Also, I would like to add that this is not meant to be a replacement of the 
existing calculator but an optional "enhanced" calculator, since it requires 
an additional external dependency (libqalculate). So IMO the current choice of 
branding (name and icon) could be acceptable. If there are no objections, I 
would like to move it to kdeplasma-addons next weekend. I am willing to 
mantain it in the future.

Regards,
Matteo
