[SailfishDevel] Sailfish Screwy Easter Egg

[christopher.lamb at thurweb.ch]

Hi Martin

"so it's quite useful" is classic British understatement: it hits the  
nail on the head! in Swiss German Mundart I would mutter something  
along the lines of "Nägel mit Köpf machen!"

 From years of leading teams of developers I am painfully aware of the  
ability of at least one to sit in a corner and be blissfully unaware  
of the mind-blowingly-obvious; but how come it has taken me some  
months of Silica hacking to find this?

Should not there be great flashing lights on the SailfishOS "Getting  
Started" web page pointing to this app. As you say, it is much in  
advance of the documentation, and puts components into context in a  
way that dry documentation never will.
