it probably have to be be just a qml import (c++-usable library could even not 
be exported anymore), that will raise the future question, do we guarantee 
source compatibility for all qml imports, or under what  circumstances? at 
least will be easier since only source compatibility is needed (and javascript 
is so type unsafe that can swallow pretty significant changes in signature...)
