the idea is that you don't, really. What is your use case exactly? Different 
plasmoids are designed to be completely independent.
If you really need something different, you can still write a c++ plugin for 
the plasmoid (an Applet* subclass just as in plasma 4, accessible via qml with 
nativeinterface) in which you still have access to applet.globalconfig or you 
can do whatever more complex/different you need.
