Wouldn't that be a lot cleaner instead of adding application specific data to the api of KoShape? You even described it in your summary as "extra user data for applications".

ok, it is frames and not textshapedata that is stored there.

however I'd like to access the anchor data from the kotext and textlayout libraries so it's not application data.

Also i need to transfer the anchor info from kotext library to words, so if not through koshape then i need to modify KoTextSharedLoadingData to transfer it.

still it doesn't solve library access to it.


In short this is the cleanest solution by far
