- The panel contains the toolbox icon (that's all just fine and i don't edit
one bit in there)
- The tool box icon in the panel can be clicked -- where is that code
hidden? --
- Once it's clicked it should open up a qml file... How do i do that inside
the existing codebase?

That's about it. If i know that (specially the last one) then i can start
hacking my way ^_^
