I think your information is a bit outdated. If you look at the API docs
for KPluginFactory you'll see that the constructors taking KAboutData
are deprecated, thats probably the reason that Konqueror plugins look so
"well", they're simply not ported (I didn't check the code, just
guesswork here). In fact if anything should fill out the aboutData of
the component of a KPluginFactory, then its the KPluginFactory, by
reading the information from the plugins .desktop file. I don't see a
point in replicating the information in code when everythings already
there in the .desktop file.
