I respectfully disagree with the change.

If I understand the descripion right, the only thing that matters for QtQuick is to change the default returned value (if all else fail) from 1 to FRAME_FRAMEWIDTH. Correct ?

The other enumerations, (LineEdit_FrameWidth, ComboBox_FrameWidth, etc.) must stay: even if they have the same values at the moment, this might change in the future (in the near future in fact, since nuno and I want to revisit the metrics, make them more dpi independent, etc.).

That the cast wont work for QtQuick is not a good reason to remove it, with all (non quick) applications around, and for which such casts work. 

Now as for the change needed for QtQuick, this will (must) break (that is: change) all applications that render a frame and don't fall in the cathegories above (think custom widgets). I too have no example of this (but I'm sure there are), and since these are "custom" things, it is normal that they don't show up in oxygen-demo.

Please update the change to the "minimal" (namely -> change the default value returned for PM_DefaultFrameWidth), and then, well, we'll need to test ...
