            Bug ID: 364897
           Summary: Can't logout/reboot/shutdown after Qt upgrad
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: master
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
          Reporter: sit...@kde.org
                CC: bhus...@gmail.com, plasma-b...@kde.org

This has happened numerous times in the past, most recently I noticed it with
5.5->5.6 and now 5.6->5.7. Whenver Qt sees a major upgrade the overlay dialogs
for logout and friends does not actually load.

The blur&shade effects are applied but then the dialog never gets loaded.

I forgot to take a look at the logs but I am guessing this is because the qml
files fail to load due to incompatible qtquick c++ plugins that would be
dragged in.

This essentially makes it impossible for a user to get out of the session.

To prevent this the logout/reboot/shutdown/... components should be lazy loaded
after startup and then held in-memory so we can always display the dialogs to
actually end the currently running session.

Reproducible: Always
