A little concerned that there are no documentation changes as part of this patch. Is this stuff noted in the apidocs?

Also, I assume that not changing the behaviour of setXMLFile is a deliberate decision. What's the reasoning? That should probably be noted in a comment or in the apidocs.

This patch is still SC/BC, it's just a porting trap -- that affects none of the other existing kf5-based apps though.
