Plasmoids
Plasmoids use the declarative language QML 2.0 to describe their user interface and use JavaScript to control the logic and behavior of the applet.
It allows easily the declaring of an interface and to easily create things like ListViews with native Plasma theming. It is what Plasma is leaning the most towards, especially in the Mobile, MediaCenter shells.
