KAMD keeps back-compatibility. Even in 5 -> 6 transition, I will want that kept.

I still don't see a point in having two different binaries that can not be run at the same time (unlike kded, for example) and where interchanging which one was started can lead to fun things. It would have even worse consequences if those were able to be run at the same time, and use different dbus paths.

And to reiterate, if distributions want to include this patch, and deal with the resulting problems themselves, I'm fine with that.*

(btw, kamd/5 is more stable than kamd/4)

* I guess it will bring me headaches, while triaging bug reports, but that I can handle (I hope :) )
