[Development] QProperty and library coding guide

Hi Ulf,

> re-evaluating everything that depends on any changes adds a lot of error
> prone boiler plate to many projects.

This is a first-heard for me.  Have you thought about how this would work with the Remote Objects module?  I'm worried it would not work well at all...

Is there a helloworld example available so people can get a better handle on what this is doing and how it works?

Thanks,
Brett
