My request for KWin is maximum of one KCM per release cycle. I'm 
expecting regressions due to the age of the code (sorry, experience).

For the LTS cycle the best candidate would be decoration KCM as it is 
already qml based. All other are more dangerous to adjust and I would 
recommend to not risk in LTS cycle.

For what is worth: I don't have time to work on any, I think Wayland is 
more important. This includes reviews.
