I also think that this approach just doesn't scale. We use Plasma styled dialogs for more things and I don't want to have to use this approach everywhere and not all of them are C++ based. Furthermore in case of KWin it's a little bit stupid to set an X11 property for the shadows on a KWin internal window.
I will look into the whole thing. I think especially the tabbox has some old code still around which might not be needed any more.</pre>

<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">yep, I totally agree what you said. But as I exam the code I couldn't think of any easier solution that can avoid rewrite this part of code.
One of the problem is, the background is defined in qml, so set shadow here isn't correct if someone don't use a plasma background. But maybe the background should be move out, but in that case it would break existing tabbox qml (fortunately there aren't much on kde-look.org).
The right approach is to use Plasma::Dialog IMHO, but use it here is not very easy and it would still use same code (which is in kdelibs) to set X11 property for shadow.
So kwin will directly use Plasma::Svg for tabbox shadow?.. I can't see a clear way for doing this right so I just take a easiest way for this. (And to call attention for right people on this, on purpose :P)</pre>

<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">KWin needs a (tmp proprietary) property to set the shadow from qml.
Item {
shadowLeft = <someimage>
}
Plasma (components) hopefully provides a qml way to access the pixmap(id) of a Plasma::Svg directly, otherwise one will have to create PlasmaCore.SvgItem (i hope they exist) and pass them over to the property (but i've atm. no idea how to make an image out of that)</pre>

<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">given that KWin includes one layout for Plasma Active which does not set a background at all and which should not get a shadow, anything which would enforce the usage of Shadows is wrong.
It needs to be done in a way as Thomas suggests. If that's not possible than we have to live with a regression.</pre>
