 * @brief The base class for scripting interfaces to be used in loading
 *        plasmoids of a given language.
 *
 * All ScriptEngines should export as consistent an interface as possible
 * so that the learning curve is limited. In particular, the following
 * API should be made available in the script environment:
 *
 * TODO: define the actual API ...
 * PlasmaApplet - the applet of this plasmoid
 * LoadUserInterface(String uiFile) - loads and returns a given UI file
 * LoadImage - loads an image resource out of the plasmoid's package
 * PlasmaSvg - creates and returns an Svg file
