KDE-QT4 plugins

Hi!

I'd like to ask how to add the path of the Qt plugins from KDE to the 
base Qt installation. The old method (which added the path to qtrc file 
in .qt seems to not work). Browsing the Qt docs, the path should be 
added with QCoreApplication::addLibraryPath ( 
http://doc.trolltech.com/4.1/qcoreapplication.html#addLibraryPath ), but 
this means that:
- It should be called from KApplication with the KDE path
- KDE plugins will not be available in Qt-only apps
- What about designer plugins?

Also found the docs for qt.conf, but it's not searched in standard 
places (e.g in .qtrc).

Last word: as I see now the KImgIO plugins converted to Qt's imageformat 
plugins, should't they installed in plugins/imageformats?

Happy new year,
György
