[MeeGo-touch-dev] MeeGo Touch style/objectName changes

[Peter Csaszar]

Hi,

For having spacer widgets with the style CommonSpacer, I had to use MWidgetController instead of MWidget. Now I get a 
lot of such messages on terminal:

Could not find view class for: MWidgetController / "default"

What should I do to not have these messages without having to define view classes?

Br,
Peter
