+Modules that are installed into the import path translate the URI into
+directory names. For example, the qmldir file of the module \c com.nokia.qml.mymodule
+must be located in the subpath \c com/nokia/qml/mymodule/qmldir somewhere in the

+\c com/nokia/qml/mymodule.2.1/qmldir. The engine will automatically load
