the API additions look good. and am i right to understand that to get the list of available syntaxes, the krunner webshortcuts plugin might do something like:

KUriFilterData data("<q>");
if (KUriFilter::self()->filterSearch(data)) {
     foreach (const QString &providerName, data.preferredSearchProviders()) {
         const QString exampleQuery = queryForPreferredSearchProvider(providerName);
         Plasma::RunnerSyntax s(exampleQuery, i18n("Searches %1 for <q>", providerName));
     }
}

?

The intent of this patch is to correctly address the issue that caused applications/plugins to write their own implementation of web shortcut filters because of missing functionality in this class. This has led to behavioral differences between implementations, e.g. Konqueror's location bar vs KRunner.

The enhancement also allows khtml and kwebkitpart to query for all the necessary information they need to display content menu "search" options on selected text instead of relying on the configuration information of a completely unrelated application (read: plugin) which can definitely be changed without notice!
