Too bad, I wanted to ask for your help on something related...

I don't know if you followed the "KDE Frameworks" effort, but we're basically 
trying to upstream as much of the kdelibs functionality as possible, into Qt.
Anything that makes sense for all Qt applications (i.e. which isn't tied to 
the KDE workspace or community), should go into Qt.

Do you think KColorScheme could be replaced with a Qt feature?
What would that be? Would more enums in QPalette (turning them into flags, 
actually, to combine several of the different enums from KCS) be enough?

The actual code can stay in KDE, via the future QPA plugin for instance.

What I'm really after, is the API. How to write Qt apps with Qt API, and then 
have them behave nicely in a KDE workspace (e.g. user settings would be 
applied at that level).

Well, even if you can't work on this at the moment, your input by email would 
still be very welcome, so that we have an idea of what would be the ideal 
solution about this.
