Hmm, perhaps I used too much review tool recently, like gerrit. In any
case, -1 does not mean I am totally against the idea, do not do this.
That is -2. :) -1 is just that I have concerns. Please do not take the
situation this hard. :-)

I have developed a plasma components based simple application. I have
packaged the whole stack up to the Plasma Components on t he N9
device. I was there at the Plasma Active sprint. I even tried this out
on different platforms than desktop (namely Harmattan instead of the
Harmattan components). I have a rough idea about this. ;)

To be quite honest, I prefer other solutions better like I wrote. As
for me, qt desktop components is a better way to go even if it is a
research project. Saying that "Plasma Components" are themable is
overrated in this situation since it is not something I would do, plus
even if this has the feature for that, it does not mean there is such
a replacement for the desktop player style in any case.

I am really not getting the point of deleting the current application
without preserving the option for build that for the time being. Once
the qt desktop components becomes more mature (or even before that),
we could have a plasma-free solution, I would happy with.
