Hello,

Recently I was implementing a directory picker in a Sailfish application
and it has come to my attention that there are two independent
FolderListModels for QML: one ships with Qt [1] and another comes from
nemomobile [2]. They have incompatible API and seem to be developed in
unawareness of its counterpart. I like Nemo version for its extended
functionality like permissions, mkpath and rename but the Qt Labs version
is being shipped by the most prominent Nemo user -- Jolla -- whereas Nemo
version doesn't even appear in Sailfish repositories.

That being said, I'd like to know whether there's any policy in Nemo
regarding these situations. Should there be any API merge towards
Qt.labs.FolderListModel (which for obvious reasons would be the upstream
version)?

Thanks

Cheers
Dmitriy
