Ive tried this with my Batlevel app and I can confirm it works ( on my N900

)
Prior to this I was playing with the atom ( HD_TYPE_HOME_PLUGIN_ITEM ) in my QT code which looked real ugly in code. This is a nice move, and I hope something is available for QT status menu widgets as well soon.

But , this feature was available in QT4.6 tp2 uploaded to extras-devel repo on 3Feb and QT4.6 uploaded on 10Feb has lost it, dont know if it was intentionally removed

.

How do I know ? ( my build failed

) , also confirmed from the source files in the repo.

So I guess we need to wait before this hits the repository again.

Anyways, this is still TP so that means the team is still wokring and Quim has posted a general warning for all apps using QT4.6 .
