Definitely! Solid is now part of kdelibs. ;-)

Perfect then, we have to ensure that the support in HAL matures correctly. You 
might be interested in taking a look at their plans, there's for sure a few 
thread on this matter on the HAL mailing list. Once it's supported there, 
it'll probably be trivial to add the needed support in Solid.

Funny, that's one of the use cases I had in mind too. Well, except that I have 
no mobile phone. ;-)
