Yes, StackFolder is an independent applet and placed in a playground repo 
(https://projects.kde.org/projects/playground/base/stackfolder). It was announced by Denis Koryavov in the kde-devel mailing list with another our utilities.  I'm sorry, I should have done the same in this mailing list. 
Originally StackFolder is a fork of FolderView applet, that was redesigned to look like MacOS X Stask utility.  It allow to browse the stack of folders and quick access to files and  also may interact with another Rosa's utility - Klook to preview a wide range types of files (including playing video and audio). For the time being the GUI part of code is rewritten on QML. And as I've already written, recently we implemented Drag-and-Drop mechanism.
Here is the video where you can see the features of  StackFolder (this is an old video, but topical): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnH13y_FlHU

If I understand you correctly, I should to post to the reviewbord in any case independent of kind of  applet?
Could you remind me when will new devel cycle be opened?

Thanks!
