You will of course have to touch the non-rendering code as well.
Remember that most of our games were never written with clean
model-view separation as a target. (In fact, the only game which I
remember does this is KNetWalk.)

Add to that that BomberGameWidget inherits KGameCanvasWidget so it's
absolutely impossible not to change this class in a fundamental way
when porting away from KGameCanvas.

Always act rationally, but don't be shy.
