That doesn't work either (I had tried it when it was made QVariantMap in the
engine). It works if I access in the following manner:

Text {
    text: dataSource.data["PowerDevil"]["Available profiles"]["Performance"]
}

But not in the case:

Component.onCompleted: {
    var profiles = dataSource.data["PowerDevil"]["Available profiles"];
    // do stuff with the map, eg iterate
}

The latter simply stops at the first line inside the onCompleted saying,
dataSource.data["PowerDevil"] [undefined] is not an object, and just
wouldn't go any further. The former cannot be used because we wouldn't know
names of all the profiles beforehand. Hence we need to iterate over the keys
and get the values from the map, which, as I said, is not working even with
QVariantMap.
