As far as I'm concerned it can be deprecated. We can definitely deprecate KFileMetadataWidget which is the only user of this KFileMetadataReader. Dolphin now uses Nepomuk2::FileMetadataWidget. The only slight problem might be that Dolphin still likes being "Nepomuk Optional" at compile time. So they still use it. Maybe we should talk to Frank about this?

The only other class is KFileMetaInfo, which uses Strigi directly. I still have to write a replacement for that in Nepomuk.

@David: I think we talked about this in Berlin. Should we deprecate KFileMetadataWidget?
