I'm not adding code that polls, I'm modifying an implementation that polls. I'm 
even making it less dependent on frequent polling in its default configuration, 
inspired by WidgetBasedPoller.

I'm not touching your Wayland implementation, nor the Xcb implementation, but I 
don't see your gripe with changing things in code that is written by someone 
else...

If developing KF5 frameworks isn't a democratic endeavour I don't really see 
what I'm doing here either.
