very awesome stuff. his source document can be found here as well:

I just about fell off my chair when I saw that there were not one, not two .. 
but THREE typography proposals in there.

this has pretty big implications for Plasma::Theme and opens some questions as 
to how to effectively style fonts in QML Components.

the proposals include capitalization as well as things like usage of 
weight/italics (or lack thereof), and those are / can be handled separately in 
QML. particularly the capitalization implies we will need to provide some 
pass-through functions to style raw text properly.
