You should be able to make desktop applications in QML. Also fullscreen
ones!
Specially fullscreen ones!

The "Qt Desktop Components" are going to allow that as well. Now i hope you
mean one should mix Qt Desktop Components together with Plasma Components
to make a fullscreen desktop application.

 ApplicationWindow.qml

It might be a lot simpler to provide a Plasma window component...
