some comments/thoughts on the code (besides that Kevin already noted):
* there's an m_rootItem in NotifierDialog that isn't used; looks like a hold-
over from the current DeviceNotifier. ditto with the SpecificRoles enum.
* NotifierDialog isn't actually a dialog anymore ;) perhaps a better name
would make it clearer as to what it does. DeviceWidgetManager? looking at it a
bit more, i wonder if NotifierDialog is even needed. all the real
functionality is in the Applet class and DeviceWidget; the "in between" class
could probably be removed as a middle-man and Applet could just use
DeviceWidget directly?
* if setEjectEmblem is ever called with set == false and m_unmountActions
doesn't contain an entry for that udi, a crash will occur. a Q_ASSERT should
go in there at a minimum, if not a full if (m_unmountActions.contains). right
now that should never be a problem, but it's one of those things that's really
easy to introduce as a problem later on :)
looking at the screenshots i have two little comments:
* the action seems to be on the "wrong" side of the dialog. reading left-to-
right it should be "noun, verb" as in "the object i want to operate on, the
thing i want to do with it" since before deciding to eject i first need to
find what to eject ...
looking at the code it seems that this is using Plasma::IconWidget to paint
it; that icon should actually be in the corner of the icon itself, not the
corner of the widget. so, that's a small bug in Plasma::IconWidget.
* the 128 px minimum size is probably a bit much. for preferred size it makes
sense, but it should be possible to make them smaller than that.
otherwise, it's looking nice.. :)
