Well, it's not just about kio_mac. I think we might want to decide to move all 
io-slaves that aren't very generic or specifically needed by another 
application to kdeaddons.

finger, fish, nfs, sftp, mac and zip would qualify for that based upon a quick 
glance. If anyone foresees any problems with moving those away, let me know.

Cheers,
Waldo
