cool; when you blog about this (assuming that's at least partly what the video 
is for), you may want to make it ++clear that the QML containment shown is 
just one example of what can be done with the new QML integration features and 
that in turn that means people can much, much more easily create custom 
containments as they won't have to touch C++ e.g.

you may even want to point out that it starts to bridge the gap between Plasma 
Active's plasma-device shell which uses QML for containments, but in a more 
limited fashion, and other Plasma shells for other form factors. .. . which in 
turn will lead us to be able to have one shared generic shell which can load 
different form foctor layouts on the fly without having to restart the shell 
process (as we currently do with, e.g., netbook vs desktop)

it's look rather nice, and it's great to see another component clicking into 
place so nicely.
