But as the QML component needs to talk to the dataengine (like when you close the notification or exectue an action) and uses some methods from the rest of the plasmoid, I can't just instantiate it from the cpp side. So I create the component in QML, pass it to CPP, set the ownership to CPP so it's not deleted ever and then handle it all there.
