Use of "Qt Addons"

Hi folks,

I've just read an article on pro-linux.de based on our most recent KDE 
Frameworks 5 dot article.

It seems that the use of "Qt Addon" without any more detailed explanation has 
lead to it being translated as "Plugin for Qt". Which in this context is 
unfortunately not correct.

Basically the misconception was that KDE Libs is a collection of libraries 
while KDE Frameworks 5 is a collection of plugins for Qt.

KF5 is still a collection of libraries, i.e. developers need to explicitly 
decide to use them, they are build time dependencies, etc,

Plugins, on the other hand, usually refer to things that developers do not use 
directly, but which are available at runtime and are loaded by Qt when needed.

I am not sure how to best approach this, i.e. whether we can add a definition 
of Qt Addon to those articles without breaking the flow of them or if we just 
"send patches" to article authors that get it wrong until better translations 
have established themselves.

Any thoughts?

Cheers,
Kevin
