Investigate using GreenIsland or parts of Hawaii shell

• GreenIsland would let us write a plugin for the shell
• Hawaii has QML plugins we may be able to reuse

Use KDE frameworks wherever possible

• See the KFrameworks wiki page for Papyros.

Style existing apps

As perfect as our own apps might be, there is a need to make all the existing apps fit into the general material design style, therefore we have to

• Create a style sheet for Qt apps

• Create a style sheet for GTK+ apps

  (Both could reuse code from the Paper theme)

• Make future and current QtQuick Controls Styles be compatible with the clean QtQuick Controls. See this issue.
