Well, you can probably change the qdesigner_integration_p.h and remove
its macro and then live without the shared_global_p.h, but unless you do
that you need the shared_global_p.h for the proper export macro (else
you'll get an error about the class declaration)

Well, one doesn't need that header, you can also do the setup that it
does yourself. But if its already there, why re-invent the wheel.

So in fact I guess wrapping QDesignerComponents might be enough to
create a designer integration if you do the setup-stuff in python.
