As the maintainer of the framework in KF5 I would prefer if this work would go into framework and not increase the gap between the 4.x and the 5.x version even more.

Further more my understanding is that 4.x is done on feature side. 14.12 is already feature frozen and my understanding is that this was the last feature release for 4.x all together. Thus I think this new feature (yes working support on OSX is a feature) cannot be added to the 4.x branch. I'm fine with it going in if a kdelibs maintainer (David, Kevin or Kevin) say it's OK to go on.


kdeui/tests/kwindowtest.cpp

    please note that your test application is fragile as it's based on sleep which is dangerous on an async windowing system.
    
    If you want to perform proper tests have a look at the auto-tests in KWindowSystem framework. I would be very pleased if it gets an OSX port and also the auto-tests adjusted.
