I'm afraid I don't have interest in such a call and neither do the KWin maintainers. I don't know anything about the KWin codebase or how to begin porting it to another platform. KWin are busy porting it to Wayland, the display server with consensus across Linux distros and have no interest in supporting a display server with unstable API/ABI that is only in one distro (from a company who have a track record of not maintaining their features, we're having to drop indicator menu support in Kubuntu because it's changed API). Porting KWin to Mir would take several man-months at least and ongoing maintenance and I'm very skeptical Canonical would take that on.
