correct; that said, it is also just fine if people write such applications and 
make them available to users of Plasma Active. it's simply not what we 
optimize for. the other side of that is what marco notes: we shouldn't make it 
harder to make "half toy half utility" apps if that's what someone wants to 
do.

so we focus on the "not an app bucket" concept and deliver that to people .. 
and the masses who come will fill in the crApps as they see fit :)

of course, if we design the productivity aspects well enough, many 3rd parties 
will take advantage of them.

so as marco notes, we need to keep in mind that should we introduce this 
pseudo-language system we need to keep both using it and creating apps that 
use those systems easy .. and i think we can :)
