For the screen orientation, there is actually no need to bother with the JavaScript example. The way I handled screen orientation in cuteTube-QML (Fremantle version) is simply to check whether the height of the root element is greater than the width (which would be the case, if the device is in portrait orientation). Then you can use states to make any changes to positioning etc.

Example:

Code:
states: State {
        name: "portrait"
        when: window.height > window.width
        make property changes here
    }
In the example, the element referenced by the id window is the root element in my main.qml file. The properties of this element can be accessed from any of the other QML files.

As you say, Qt Components has other means of achieving this, but it works in a very similar way.
