KAccounts should be really really pushed inside KDE and Plasma. It's 
ridiculous that currently one has to set up GMail, Google Calendar and 
Hangouts separately within KDE applications. People are used to just set up 
their Google account only once from their phones, for example. Heck, even the 
N9 already had this!
I really wonder why this hasn't gained more traction within KDE yet. Maybe all 
projects are waiting for others to do it?
