The preliminary conclusion is to leave this out of the new API - the
current ListItem is going to be deprecated because it's by design very
slow. The built-in shape feature is actually one of the reasons for
that. And it looks to be the minority of use cases that require a shape
at all.
14:33 <zsombi> kalikiana: the new ListItem does not have any shape, whatever
you put in it that will eb shown, no predefined layout, nothing
14:34 <zsombi> kalikiana: all we have are layout helpers, like ListItemLayout,
which is only a GridLayout with 2GU marging left/right
14:34 <kalikiana> zsombi: hmm would it make sense to have an app layout for
that?
14:34 <zsombi> kalikiana: it won't be flexible enough...
14:35 <zsombi> kalikiana: the idea is that you could have an icon or an image
there, framed or frameless
14:36 <kalikiana> zsombi: yeah that's what I'm wondering. it's tedious to hunt
down the exact use cases… it may not even make sense to have a standard way of
doing it, many of the bugs right now are due to the default being true which is
almost always wrong
14:37 <zsombi> kalikiana: right. And if you don't need frame, meaning teh
image/icon should not be in a Shape, then we'd have a dangling Shape component
which is not visible but its initialization time eats performance...
