Another issue we are having with qmllint is adding type information for objects added to the global object in C++. We've used this to provide custom log and assert functions, but obviously the linter doesn't know about them. If they are added to qml/jsroot.qmltypes (along similar lines to the 'Console' type) then the linter does know about the type.
The point of the linker is to warn you about QML constructs we cannot compile to C++. jsroot.qmltypes is supposed to only contain information about types built into QtQml itself, so that we can make strong assumptions about where to find the respective functionality when generating C++ code. Please don't add anything to it.
You should define singletons if you need to add globally accessible functionality. A singleton can have methods, and access to a known singleton can be compiled to C++.
