Yep. So a base previewer class in /previewer, the current previewer inherits
from this class and pushed into /previewer/plasmoid, and then create two
more classes in /previewer/dataengine and /previewer/runner which also
inherit from the base previewer class.

As for more specific details, I'm not sure myself. I was thinking - for
runner, look at and imitate krunner/search and launch code; and for
dataengine, look at plasmaengineexplorer code :) We should make them all
live in a dockwidget and they should work reasonably well in the small space
the plasmoid previewer currently lives in.
