Plasma Active is completely independent from this both technically and 
design-wise. Technically it's independent because it does everything in 
QML. From a design perspective it#s independent because it does things 
differently anyway (starting with different invocation of context menus. 
We may even remove them altogether at some point if we find a better 
alternative). So PA could not use anything that comes out of this 
directly. If it is done and it's successful, PA can use it as an 
inspiration, of course :)
