Another thing that David just pointed to me:
minimum/preferred/implicitwidth will have to be exported by 
compact/fullRepresentation as well, and since at least those should be any 
arbitrary item, so it should be an attached property, just as Layout of 
QtControls layouts.

http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.1/qtquicklayouts/qml-qtquick-layouts1-layout.html

at this point it may be an attached property in the Applet component as well.
(everything may be an attached property and the applet component not be there 
if we push it, but it may look weird)
