Exactly that is my concern as well. 

The plasmoid object collates what we present as public API, and the QML 
tricks, so maybe put a skeleton API class in libplasma, and derive from that 
in the scriptengine (and putting the QML specific bits in there). This would 
need some surgery though, but would make it possible to reuse at least the API 
code in the systray (where we fake the plasmoid object).

Do I make sense?
