The whole split between workspace and applications seems to generate more 
issues than we thought..... we're going to miss a place for shared runtime 
deps.

If someone uses konvi, konsole, okular, or konqueror outside of plasma-
workspace, (e.g. in gnome, Mac or Windows), then they are not going to be able 
to configure cookies, internet keywords, useragent, proxies ..... if these 
things are part of the workspace.

Given that the kurifilter plugins themselves are in KIO for this same reason, 
maybe the ebrowsing and the kio (cookies,proxies,useragent) KCMs should go 
into KIO as well?
