Reusing parts of Krita for a QtQuick 2.0 mobile application

Hi all!
  Sometimes in the future, I'd like to build a QtQuick 2.0 module that
provides some building blocks for graphic applications. The primary
focus would be mobile applications.

My first idea was to improve the existing Qt bindings for the GEGL
library (the one used in the latest GIMP). If the QML bindings are
well-written, that should give developers the ability to work with
layers, performs quite a few operations on them and see the results in
real-time.

But before getting started with GEGL, I'd also like to explore other
possibilities (especially if that can help me in reducing the
dependencies). So, the question is: does Krita depend on some
libraries/modules that could be easily wrapped in a QML API and could be
used as a building block for a graphic application?

I tried to have a look at the source code, but there are many
directories and I'm not sure where to look. :-)

Ciao,
  Alberto
