As an aside: TrafficMonitor is actually a QGraphicsWidget, which is better than 
a QWidget here. 
However, it will still fail in QML2 and will need to be ported then.

The biggest reason I can see for it being a QGraphicsWidget is to use 
Plasma::SignalPlotter. So 
that is understandable .. Sean Reich had done some work to build a qml2 
replacement for 
SignalPlotter, so in the QML2 version of this plasmoid, TrafficMonitor should 
be able to either be 
removed entirely or ported to QQuickItem.

Yes, this works just fine.
