Just an idea:
Declarative-only QML files could be translated to C++ by a tool similar
to uic, and then used by a C++-only successor of QtWidgets.

Or are there any technical reasons why all the state-of-the-features
provided by QML v2 could not be implemented on the C++ side assuming
there is a QML-to-C++ code generation step?


Having a clear cut between declarative and imperative QML would
also improve visibility of specification- and implementation-parts
of a QML file.
