That might be less fragile than the grantlee approach, thanks for pointing to 
that solution :)

Though has the small beauty disadvantage that this needs both the generated 
and that wrapping export header to be installed. But no show-stopper. Will be 
strongly considered.

((While the set of Calligra libs are not yet stable and thus not promoted for 
use by 3rd-party, that is to change in the near future step-by-step, with kdb, 
kproperty and kreport even in separate repos and spearheading that move.
So our problem also needs to cover the headers that are installed.))
