possibly, but right now wether calling it Applet, Plasmoid or Bob is kinda the 
last of the problems.

personally i would prefer plasmoid as well, but if and only if the component 
can be merged with AppletInterface, that is providing the "plasmoid" object at 
the moment. otherwise wou have two "plasmoid" things that do two completely 
different things.

what i'm interested at the moment is about a strategy to correctly switch 
between representations, to correctly propagate size hints while keeping an 
intuitive, as small as possible api.

bikeshedding about the name won't make it happen.
looking at, and experimenting with the code will :p
