That is some very interesting information :)
I'm guessing that will have to go in PlasmaExtraComponents? or
QtExtraComponents? or do we need a KDEExtraComponents ^_-

Could you explain a bit more in this area? I think this is very
interesting, but i don't really know the libtaskmanager structure and which
classes are required (at the very least) to create a taskmanager plasmoid.
How would you see this?

For example a TaskManager component like:
TaskManager{
   model (is a TaskModel)
   grouping (where it can be one of TaskGroupingStrategy enum:
NoGrouping, ManualGrouping
or ProgramGrouping
    ... what else ...
}

Your input would be welcome.
