Triggering DCOP calls is not the only use for speech recognition. We would 
also need to simulate keyboard input. And we would need a user interface 
for defining the words you wish to use. Adding all of this to khotkeys 
might be too much, but it could be combination of several DCOP speaking 
applications, of course.

Anyway, without seeing the IBM code this a completely theoretical 
discussion.
