I've always been surprised that cmake doesn't remove the "lib" prefix when
using MODULE. Starting plugins with "lib" encourages people to confuse libs
and plugins, and to link to plugins -- which is a huge "no no", with
portability in mind.
The ideal solution IMHO would have been MODULE removing the prefix, but I
guess it's too late for that.
So the second best solution IMHO would be a add_library( ... PLUGIN ...) or
add_plugin(), in cmake itself.
This is definitely not kde specific.
