- needs review/feedback
- interesting part is openColorScheme() in kcolorschemehelpers_p.h
- existing benchmark in the tests shows no change
- might not work with Plasma's accent color feature, as that uses kdeglobals
- possible approach: store only the accent color in kdeglobals, next to the 
color scheme name, and move the colors kcm color mixing code for this to 
KColorScheme

- two people in favor on mailing list, no objections, so let's go with this

- only two applets access KPackage this way, so impact would be quite minimal
- let's do it

Co-installability/co-usability of KIO slaves with different major versions
- kio-extras is not going to be co-installable could be a problem for this
- also affects previews, context menu plugins, etc
- everything plugin related is in versioned locations, so this is actually co-
installable
- similar problem with Ark's file manager integration plugins
- when transitioning those to 6 would degrade 5-based consumers
- probably needs kio-extras to be co-installable after all
- for cases like ark, we might want a "plugins only" build flag, in 5 already
- also helps with Flatpak bundling
