no more ideas on this?
at the moment the only thing stopping the battery and the device notifier to
me merged in master is the system kcms missing.
an easy way would be adding in the applet desktop file what kcms it needs, but
i'm quite uneasy on that since is pretty a narrow use case.
otherwise those 2 plasmoids have to be converted in a c++/qml hybrid
