Maybe we should define animation durations in Plasma::Theme (short of any
better idea). For example:
theme.shortAnimation: Use for small elements, for example a glow on a button
theme.mediumAnimation: Use for non-full screen animations, for example a text
bubble popping up
theme.longAnimation: Use for fullscreen transitions on the screen
Of course, these would be used by the animations in PlasmaExtras, and we'd
encourage developers to also use them in their apps.
Lightweight solution: Introduce a "animationsdisabled" property somewhere, and
at least adjust the duration of our animations shipped in PlasmaExtras.
Thoughts?
