OK how about if we commit this for 4.8.1 and provide the 100% correct fix i=
n master and 4.8.2?

it&#39;s just not generic enough, and that &quot;no assumptions&quot; approach is \
something that we stick to in plasma which allows us to easily pull components out, \
replace them with others, etc. we already have this solved when there is a drag and \

on the other hand, i also don&#39;t want to see an &quot;addUrl&quot; type method to \
Applet since that is going to be irrelevant to the vast majority of Applets and \
itself contains some assumptions.

this calls for a better solution that can be implemented in the target Applet and \
which doesn&#39;t result in assumptions about what the source or targets are.</pre>  \
