My apologies. I'm talking about all "Batch" kipi-plugins menu entries witch 
have been really removed from the context menu... excepted the Rotate of

... This is very confusing for me, because JPEGLossLess is also a batch 
tool... To be honest, i just need a big coffee or long hollidays to sleep 
(:=)))

This is always true. We need to take a care to not put all batch options in 
this menu.
