If you keep the interface of your QML just the set of properties in the root item, you can provide a narrower API, keeping the freedom to modify the QML:

Item {
   id: root
   property string title: "Unknown"
   ...
        Text { text: root.title }
   ...
}

(or use property aliases to provide bi-directional access)
