I tried your solution. It worked here but failed on the dashboard.
So I now did a copy.
I will also copy all the lib classes for now. 
I thought it would be better to keep it out of kdelibs for now as it might 
still change. But then again, there is time to polish until 4.2, right?
Anyway, I will copy the classes for now and think of a better solution in a 
week when I am back.
