Hmm, none of the games I regularly play wait... knetwalk, kshisen, 
ksame... Though I wouldn't mind a demo mode; I tend to start a new game 
to shave off the few seconds getting oriented from the app first 
starting up. For games with hints (kshisen, kdiamond) this should be 
relatively easy to implement, just keep calling hint and then executing 
that move. (Actually, for non-timed like ksame I guess it doesn't 
matter, but for kshisen and knetwalk the scoring is muchly or wholly 
about the time it takes to complete the puzzle.)

This I think is a WIP, i.e. we do intend all games to eventually use 
GHNS but it just hasn't been done yet.

I was recently amused by issuing 'rm -rf $KDEDIR'... from Konsole, while 
in a KDE session. And nothing bad happened whatsoever. Try THAT on 
Windows :-D.
