The plan was to have it component-based only. I think we may still need some
glue-code but that is something to look into for whoever will work on the
components.

Hmm, no offense, but why?
If Engine is a singleton (like we discussed on the meeting) then you can
remove the last two lines as both Item and Widget, because those can be
handled internally.
So instead of:
GluonGraphics::Item * item ...
engine->addItem(item);
You get:
GluonGraphics::Item *item
Item::Item() // Item ctor
{
... init code ...
Engine::instance()->addItem(this);
}
Making the actual usage API cleaner.
Also, might it be an idea to remove the "GL" from GLWidget"? Library users
really shouldn't care too much about such implementation details.

Basically, we need some components like PhysicsBodyComponent,
CircleCollisionComponent and others.
