Just only because this method is used only here (and was used in DBus). But since I \
split all DBus part from Mixer code, I thought there is no need for this method. It \
can be changed to toggleMute() method in MixDevice class, and I'll do it (it looks \
just nicer, I agree :) )

a frontend to information provided by DBus. New DBus structure is:
- /Mixers
used to get some global information, such as available mixers list and global master \
mixer
- /Mixers/MIXER_ID
used to get information about mixer with id=MIXER_ID. It provides such information as \
list of available controls, name of this mixer, id, etc
- /Mixers/MIXER_ID/CONTROL_ID
used to get and set information about control. Such information as volume level, \
mute, name of control, etc. It also adds a DBus signals which are emitted when new \
mixer/control appears, or volume level changes. It also splits all dbus-related code \
to separate class, DBus{KMix,Mixer,Control}Wrapper.
The Plasma Dataengine:
By default, the only available source is "KMix". It provides information \
global information about KMix: is KMix running, and list of available mixers. (its \
IDs) Source for every mixer is called by it's ID (for example, \
"ALSA::HDA_Intel:1"). This source provides such information about current \
Mixer as: it's readable name, is it opened, its balance and list of available \
controls. It also adds basic sources for every control, which provides only \
information about its readable name Sources for controls are called by \
'MIXER_ID/CONTROL_ID' (for example, "ALSA::HDA_Intel:1/Master:0"). \
If you request this source, it will provide such information as its readable name, is \
it muted and its volume level (which are updates automatically, using DBus signals). \
There is a service available for controls sources. It provides such methods as \
setVolume() and setMute().
It doesn't close bug 171287, but it becomes one step closer to its solving :)
And, I'm not very familiar with CMake, but it would be great idea to make plasma \
part optional. </pre>
