Okay, I've implemented finding links in the mean time. I managed to do this by 
copying the findTextNext(const QString &str, bool forward, bool 
caseSensitive, bool isRegExp) function and making a similar findLinkNext(...) 
function. Now I would like to ask, would this solution be acceptable? 
Primarily because the findTextNext() function has a comment that it should be 
removed by KDE 4.

PS.: I'm on IRC as arendjr if you want to discuss it directly.
