I moved the If to the start of the sentence.

Yes and no. popupUtils.open creates them initially with the parent. show() on the other hand does reparent after the fact if reparentToRootItem is true.

I made this more explicit now.

A QQuickWindow is not a QQuickItem. Properties and children are however implemented in QObject and aren't specific to items at all. So we can use them with a window just fine, so long as we don't try to cast it to something unrelated that it isn't.
