I've thought about that but ultimately concluded kdbusaddons actually
doesn't work for us. The way the technology works is that the sender
and the receiver need to call a helper function to deal with the
portal logic, if we had those helpers in kdbusaddons we'd need to have
optional kdbusaddons dependencies on every drag and drop enabled
application - it'd be super messy.
