It sounds like QML is the way to go.  (Any naysayers?)

Quoting Jason:

   "Widgets are more for clipped, parented areas. QML is about
    shapes on a canvas."

Is that a good way to understand QML in comparison with
widget-based Qt?

Are there specific limitations I might expect to run into when
using QML?
