  I currently concentrate on libkscreen backend work and output duplication and have based other patches on this rewrite here. So I only want to touch this diff again in case of critical issues but not add more detail work on top of what's already there. Instead after merge of the rewrite please create a task with your list of ideas so we can go with multiple small patches afterwards. Also some of these points should be discussed some more and a task is better suited for that.
