I've blogged about it:

looks rather cool ;)

and the new handle seems to actually work well, nice that sketch on the window 
actually worked ;)

is a pretty important piece that was almost a blocker (and thus adapting to 
plasma2 is something that can start soonish)

Yes, in the first place, I wanted to collect feedback here. I'll likely also 
put it up on my blog.

Good points. :)

cool; when you blog about this (assuming that's at least partly what the video
is for), you may want to make it ++clear that the QML containment shown is
just one example of what can be done with the new QML integration features and
that in turn that means people can much, much more easily create custom
containments as they won't have to touch C++ e.g.

you may even want to point out that it starts to bridge the gap between Plasma
Active's plasma-device shell which uses QML for containments, but in a more
limited fashion, and other Plasma shells for other form factors. .. . which in
turn will lead us to be able to have one shared generic shell which can load
different form foctor layouts on the fly without having to restart the shell
process (as we currently do with, e.g., netbook vs desktop)

it's look rather nice, and it's great to see another component clicking into
place so nicely.

Ah, sorry. I forgot to change the permission post-upload. It's public now.

The video is marked as private, was that intentional?

Ow, forgot: You can get at it by clicking the tiny configure icon in the top-
left corner. Make sure no applet is there, otherwise it won't receive any 
clicks.
