First off I'm probably the one responsible for this class and I guess
I didn't bother to put it into libkdegames... Also I must admit that
it took me quite a bit of time to have this functionality in Qt3 (I
tried lots of different ways to achieve that; hopefully it's easier in
Qt4).

It's up to you really. I don't put any more work in ksirtet and kmines
due to lack of time and motivation. I'm working on other projects in
my spare time.
Maybe it's a small amout of code but the idea of sharing code is also
to save time for developers so they don't have to solve the same
problems again and again or to look for "solutions" in other
programs...
