Here's the reason I don't like it:
In origin KDeclarative was intended to be a library that only depended from Qt stuff, to be at most tier 2 (and imports there were supposed to be qt-only as well) and frameworks applications using QML were supposed to do it trough KDeclarative..
This just highlights a problem happened afterwards, when no frameworks maintainer wanted any qml binding it the framework's repository, the kdeclarative repo ended up being pretty much a dumpster where all the binding of all the frameworks went, making it depend from pretty much everything.
This also means that whoever will need the binding of $framework, it will probably rather rewrite them, since using kdeclarative means pretty much depending from all of them.
So, fine for making the i18n context independent, but iff the whole situation gets resolved and each single import that depends from more than Qt stuff goes either in its framework repository or gets its own.
