Well... I dontt like it, I think programs could have a "kool" interface while still using KDE/Qt as base (take a look at k3b to see what I mean).
But.. for some users and companies.. I'm sure this is kind of a good thing, so yes... (arght, my soul is in pain)... yes... it is a good idea to support skinds.

> I don't like it

Don't you think it can be good for multimedia players like noatun for instance?
You don't even have to change 1 single line of code: you just select the right QStyle plugin, you create a .ini file and .png files et voila.

You can re-organize entirely your layouts, change widgets position and size, map all widgets with .png files just by editing a .ini file.

As I said before, I don't like it, BUT, I think it's a great idea.

So, now you're probally think: what the hell is he saying, this guy is nuts! Well... I don't like this kind of bloated interface, I prefer more simple, take amarok and k3b as an example, interface that dosen't scape very much from the overall look of programs, but that is for my taste! And I know most people like those bloated interface, and it would be very good for us to keep people satisfacted... so, I vote for this even that I don't want to use it ;)

Kind of, well, I know 3 or 4 people that would love it, so go ahead and make them happy as I am already happy.

Sorry if I was confuse.
