What I still see left of this argument is that on Unix linking via -lfoo 
is more convenient and better than linking against a hardcoded libfoo.so 
directly.

I wouldn't mind using "lib" on Unix but I think we should definitely 
define a rule for the convention on each platform. Now. This would 
simplify plugin loading code. At the same time entries like 
kshorturifilter.desktop should be normalized

   - X-KDE-Library=libkshorturifilter
   + X-KDE-Library=kshorturifilter

to simplify things.
