Well since that was my main point I suppose this discussion is basically over,
I did read somewhere a while ago (around the time of 4.0) that a C++ plasmoid
could bring down the desktop, I guess whoever said that was wrong or it's been
fixed since then.
And nice to know that it is safe to run C++ plasmoids, since I know much more
C++ than any scripting language.
