So, I've been thinking, and I'm a little confused. Do we:

1) Move the old animator.cpp into deprecated/ and create a whole new
animator.cpp with a whole new Plasma::Animator? If so, how is this
"extend Plasma::Animator"?
2) Move the old animator.cpp into deprecated/ and extend it in the new
animator.cpp? Then, this doesn't solve the naming issue(We still have
to use a different name, not "Animator"), and it isn't "retro-fitting
Animation".
3) Something else that I didn't quite get?
