It isn't an Applet. It is a QGraphicsWidget I use to group applets together.
It saves its config information in the rc file, just like Applet does. So in
restoreContents if the containment finds its entry it restores it. But if
there isn't the entry or if restoreContents isn't called i need to create a
default one.
init() is the first method after the constructor that gets called, and there
it can't know if restoreContents will get called and if it will restore my
qgw, so i can't create the default one there.
If you need to look at the code look at
playground/base/plasma/containments/groupingdesktop/lib/groupingcontainment.cpp
