actually, looking at the code, it seems that it would be better to just
provide the whole view and hide the delegate. this will allow standardizing
things such as icon vs list and what not. i'm a little concerned about
sharing this via libplasma though ... it would mean a couple more private
classes and one more method in Plasma::Wallpaper specific to configuration
 UI which would return a QAbsractItemView or some-such.

i thought about making it possible for a Wallpaper plugin to provide a
QAbastractModel, but the Wallpaper really needs to be able to decide where
 to put the listing in its configuration.
