-- please, don't toppost --

Well, you're right as in there is something for it already
(http://qt-project.org/wiki/Category:snippets) though i didn't know
that before your message. But it is difficult to search through,
difficult to see if a snippet is for QML or C++ (or both). A wiki is
simply not suited for this kind of stuff.

Cheers,
