It was returning QObjects on most places and it didn't make much sense since since it was just expecting the API users to qobject_cast to QQuickItem to do anything with these. Considering that fullRepresentation can be anything other than a graphic item doesn't sound good anyway.
Plasma Framework
The plasma framework provides the foundations that can be used to build a primary user interface, from graphical to logical components.
Introduction
The plasma framework provides the following:
- A C++ library: libplasma
- Script engines
- QML components
libplasma
This C++ library provides:
- rendering of SVG themes
- loading of files from a certain filesystem structure: packages
- data access through data engines
- loading of the plugin structure of the workspace: containments and applets
See @ref libplasma.
Script engines
Provides support to create applets or containments in various scripting languages.
QML components
org.kde.plasma.core
Bindings for libplasma functionality, such as DataEngine and FrameSvg, see @ref core.
org.kde.plasma.components
Graphical components for common items such as buttons, lineedits, tabbars and so on. Compatible subset of the MeeGo components used on the N9, see @ref plasmacomponents.
org.kde.plasma.extras
Extra graphical components that extend org.kde.plasma.components but are not in the standard api, see @ref plasmaextracomponents.
