Hi *

the kbstate-applet, which was before part of kdeaccessibility, was ported to a 
plasma-applet and added to playground/base/plasma/applet/kbstatetapplet. 
Those applet is essential for showing the state of modifier keys like ALT or 
cupslock and allow to set them using the mouse. Atm we have a light version, 
the keyboardLed-applet, in review. The keyboardLed-applet does only allow a 
subset of what the kbstate-applet does and also does not allow to set the 
modifiers. See here also http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=165402

So, question is; can we probably get it into plasma-addons for 4.2? It works 
very well yet (through I've some graphic-artefacts but I guess those ones are 
just the usual nvidia probs - maybe someone without nvidia-card could test it 
to be 100% sure? here I just need to change the size of the applet to see the 
artefacts). So, move kbstate to review and move keyboardLeds back to 
playground?
