Maik has already make a patch with a generic class to create webservice
tool instances in a wrapper dedicated to check if tool have already call
previously an restore it as well. The tools will run in background. Flickr
export is the first one to be patched :

https://cgit.kde.org/digikam.git/commit/?id=c9033851a8fce90935bb746d5a0f70ef5ec0c9b0

Another point that we talk in French previously, and where i totally agree
: the entry menu to change application language has nothing to do in Help
main menu by in the Settings menu. You are not alone to report this problem
in the past.

I take a look how this behavior is implemented in KXmlGui KF5 framework
from KDE and the bad new is that i cannot re-route the menu action in
client application. A lots of stuff are hard coded in private in the
framework component.

So the only solution is to create a bugzilla file in framework-kxmlgui
section. The contents must be generic as this framework is common to all
KDE applications. Run Dolphin, Konsole, etc : the menu entry is in the Help
section everywhere.

The list of current bugzilla files are there :
