Yes, it is needed, imagine in the future you need to store something, then you'll break the binary compatibility, so thinking for the future all the public classes (i.e. the ones we install their headers) should have a d-pointer

This class is supplied with a KgThemeProvider which it uses to discover SVG locations, reads them using QSvgRenderer and returns the requested sprite pixmap. QDeclarativeImageProvider has inbuilt ability of caching and asynchronous loading of pixmaps, which is why can replace usages of KGameRenderer in QML ports.

Game's KgThemeProviders are supplied to this class which in turn registers them with the underlying QML engine, and adds KgImageProviders corresponding to each KgThemeProvider.
