Needs to implement a dummy switcher item. As the root item of the
switchers are no longer QQuickItem derived it cannot use a QQuickView.
Instead a component gets created and the switcher is just shown on the
primary screen. It's a more appropriate preview now which is not
put into a dialog window.
To make it more realistic (and to be able to dismiss it) the preview
grabs keyboard and mouse and closes itself if escape, return, enter or
space is pressed.
As well clicking outside the preview window closes the preview.
It's an option doing pretty much the same as the highlight of selected
window option. But it is known to conflict especially with some Plasma
themes.

Since the QML port the LayoutMode had been hardcoded to vertical
layout making it a completely useless code-path.
MinWidth/Height are nowadays completely controlled by the QML
theme. They were not read anywhere except in the kcm, but there
not even bound to a ui element.
The selectedItemLayoutName is also not used anymore with the
new themes.
Next to the preview/configure button a GHNS button is included
as a simple button with icon only to not break the layout.
Currently the button is not shown as the category on kde-look
has not yet been created yet.

Additional TabBox Mode which allows to switch between all open
windows of the current selected application. By default Alt+tilde
is used which is on qwerty just one key above tab. For non-qwerty
layouts the shortcut is unfortunately not convenient.

This allows to select whether TabBox should exclude minimized windows,
or only show minimized windows or just don't care about minimized windows.
This is the default and the behavior as it used to be.

Replaced by a TabBox layout. The effect is still there as it
can be used for desktop switching (which is not yet ported to layouts)
and as a proxy effect for CoverSwitch.
The users who use BoxSwitch will be migrated to the new layout.
* Models and Delegates for Clients and Desktops
* Horizontal, vertical and tabular layout
* Layout of one item can be configured by an XML definition
* A desktop item can include a client list
* An optional second list view showing only the selected item
* A new KCM "kwintabbox"
* An alternative TabBox with independent settings and keybindings
* Optional Highlight Windows effect integration
* List scrolls instead of removing items
* Scroll wheel support
* Cursor key support
* Middle click on item closes window
