The Qt Model/View framework is being forgotten for Plasma widgets. I like the folderview's panel mode and I wanted to make a generic quick access widget similar. If it were made as a View, anybody else could plug any model to it. Code less, create more ;)
Think of the konsole and konqueror profiles widgets. Or Chani's desktop menu launcher. They seem out of place, not styled. I would love to have them to look as good as folderview. I already considered using any view and setting a custom QItemDelegate. Then I found QStyledItemDelegate and the already existing, but incomplete, plasma style. I think this last pair is the best and most flexible solution. ::Solution * The private Plasma::Style should be extended to let the scrollarea and view items be painted in the current theme style. * Export the different view widgets to Plasma.
