QtQuick Templates popup vs QtQuick Controls popup

What is the difference between a Qt Quick Templates popup vs QtQuick Controls popup?

The popups I get from import QtQuick.Templates 2.0 vs import QtQuick.Controls 2.0 seem to have minor behavior differences.

The templates are just the logical skeleton of the actual controls without the graphical parts, the popup from controls is just a decorated version of the popup from templates:

//Popup.qml
import QtQuick 2.6
import QtQuick.Templates 2.0 as T

T.Popup {
    id: control

    implicitWidth: Math.max(background ? background.implicitWidth : 0,
                            contentWidth > 0 ? contentWidth + leftPadding + rightPadding : 0)
    implicitHeight: Math.max(background ? background.implicitHeight : 0,
                             contentWidth > 0 ? contentHeight + topPadding + bottomPadding : 0)

    contentWidth: contentItem.implicitWidth || (contentChildren.length === 1 ? contentChildren[0].implicitWidth : 0)
    contentHeight: contentItem.implicitHeight || (contentChildren.length === 1 ? contentChildren[0].implicitHeight : 0)

    padding: 12

    contentItem: Item { }

    background: Rectangle {
        border.color: "#353637"
    }
}

So there shouldn't really be any behavioral differences.
