was it discussed in a bof? are there notes about it?</p></pre>

Well, they mentioned they need good Kiosk support so I wanted to make the Plasma stuff follow that as magically as possible, UI-wise, that is.</p></pre>

Instead of binding it directly to a property you bind it to an item and it tries to figure out what to do based on the properties the item has and the type of the config.</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">This allows us to automatically reflect immutables (cf. LiMux) in the UI without further ado by the plasmoid programmer. It can:</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">Boolean config:
- If it's bound to sth with a "checked" property (eg. checkbox), it sets checked to the config</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">Int config:
- If it's bound to sth with a "currentIndex" property (eg. combobox), it sets currentIndex to the config
- If it's bound to sth with value, minimumValue and maximumValue property (eg. slider or spinbox) it sets value to the config</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">String config:
- If it's bound to sth with a "text" property (eg. textfield) it sets text to the config</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">Maybe there's even more? We don't really have introspection so I just rely on properties being there and the programmer not doing rubbish. We could also use the label from the config xml and/or auto-populate min/maxvalue</p></pre>
