Good to hear that Plasma Active wants to showcase Calligra. If the Calligra Mobile doesn't break the desktop compilation, I would love to see it in tools directory. As Inge mentioned we can move it to other directory when Core/UI separation is done.
I am ok with the "Calligra Active" name +1 from me.
