we'll probably want to add an application window QML item to Plasma 
Components; some though will need to go into how to make it so that it works 
reasonably well across device types. the biggest problem with giving app 
developers a thing like this is that they will start using any and all 
possibilities with assumptions that are often misplaced (e.g. "i can rely on 
making a window not fullscreen.")

an "ApplicationWindow" version of Dialog might be welcome if someone wants to 
try their hand at writing it. API could be modeled after the Qt Desktop 
Components API, though handling of the status bar, toolbars, etc would need to 
be pretty drastically different on mobile than on the desktop.

interesting area for some R&D for anyone who is interested...
