[Kde-pim] Baloo based Qml API for (Active) Mail + Plasma

[Michael Bohlender]

Thanks for your input!

Baloo does not store the data I want, so a mostly baloo based API is not an
option.
This also means that there is no point in modifying the baloo pim search to
retrieve the title because we either need it all or just the id.

Looks like the predefined-search-folder-feature is also interesting for the
desktop client. Implementing it on the akonadi server side is an obvious
choice then. I am a little worried, that I might lose some control over the
message list that way. E.g. I don't want the mails to instantly disappear
from an "unread" list, just because I opened them (and marked them as read
that way). I want them stay there till I close that listview.  Anyway. I
think I can work around this  (if there is not already a solution) and
potential other problems in the QML API.

So much about just exposing some baloo features to qml and doing  the rest
client side... :)
I have never looked at the  source code and don't know where to start. Any
Pointers?

Cheers,

Mike
