Theming, again

[Ivan Čukić]

Hi all,

With qml-ifying plasma, we have the opportunity to completely break
the current theming system and make something that would work. I'm
usually all for back-compatibility, but in this case I think we should
start from scratch. We have already had discussions about why the
current theming system is not sufficient, so I'm not going to repeat
them.

With the plans [1] for QML themes, we'll get a proper theming for
Plasma widgets, the thing that will remain is to do the same for
applets, panels and similar.

IMO, we could try to implement the compatibility layer to support the
old themes, but I don't think it should be our priority.
