Hello Radek.
The proposed task is challenging in one interesting way: it connects
Kexi and thus Calligra with purely external application, i.e. Marble
by providing some kind of building block for vertical solutions. Let's
see how this will work out.
And this looks like truly new feature in forms after months of
incremental improving Kexi.

What others wouldn't know, Radek is professional developer skilled in
C++/Qt, who studied and touched some core Calligra code in the KOffice
times (2010).

CC'ing to the marble-devel list, it will be hopefully interesting for
them (wow, just recalled: I talked about this with Torsten Rahn or
Marble fame already at Akademy 2008...)
