Cool, but there are *many* categories of application which really don't need to conform to the platform UIs. Games, graphical utilities and the fart apps will have entirely custom UIs. As long as there's a standard/simple way of embedding that reusable content in a platform-specific container, and that is clearly documented in the QML tutorials, I'll be moderately happy :-) > But personally I don't like the idea of having to change *every* > *single* *file* especially if they differ only by the import statement. Indeed, that would be a failure. API compatibility of MeeGo & Qt Components would be great, of course, but if the import statements need to differ, that results in unnecessary complication in ones build system.
