We cannot at the same time tell people Plasma components and app components should be visually different; \
and at the same time tell developers they should be using some stuff from plasma in their apps. They're \
not compatiable plans.
Also this is a /lot lot/ better than the implementation in PlatformComponents. It's similar to the \
approach QtQuick.Dialogs; you return a QObject with properties. For now that wraps a QWidget dialog in \
the desktop mode for now; but it could just as easily return something a QWindow QML item with QtQuick \
Controls inside in future without breaking API. (much)
It might be re-inventing a wheel, but it's adding a rubber tyre on the outside whilst it does it.
