Hi all,
since freeze is looming, there are a couple of things that i want to get done
before, because are quite invasive and i don't want to get stuck years withous
those changes:
* qml imports from frameworks: this is the absolute #1 priority atm imo:
dumping everything in plasma-framework is simply not an option. has to be
discussed about in the framework meeting tomorrow, but qml stuff should always
go in the associated framework repo (and for this reason, applet global
shortcuts still don't really work because we don't know where to put the
corresponding widget)
* change in api of a qml component, the tabbar: it will need an orientation
property (north,south,east,west). Is needed for kickoff (if i understood
correctly right now it just rotates the tabbar?) and for the new theme, that
will probably give it a different look for the 4 orientations
* Changes in widgets linked to theming: but even tough right now the new theme
is pretty much just redoing a plasma1 theme, there will possibly be new
elements: probably the taskbar will have a different theme depending on what
the screenedge the panel is, same thing as the tabbar
for the changes in the theme elements that don't imply api changes, i would
allow them until artwork freezze tough.
