It has always been a trade-off.
Having it so one writes code in ECM and it doesn't get properly tested
in real use by developers till frameworks releases also sucks. I think
this has been a particularly turbulent week for kwin, which isn't
typical.

I'm surprised the Neon experience hasn't really worked out for Neon's
main goal. I think that's the real issue and not really a kwin
specific one.

I'm not sure how true that is. There's a massive up-front setup cost,
but once that's done, it doesn't take much hand holding.
