I already did. It is simple: create a service stub application which loads one 
KDEDModule and control a bunch of them in KDED.

Without any API changes. The only tricky thing is the "/modules/foobar" D-Bus 
interface which has to be forwarded with some D-Bus magic. But even that is 
not that hard.
