Interesting wording. For the average user: maybe not. For the power
user: it would. I like to think that users of KDE are not 'average

Yes we should. The tikitag stuff looks kinda cool. Of course, there are
other short range communication protocol (ZigBee, ONE-NET, Z-Wave).
Maybe there can be some sort of abstraction layer (although I think a
lot of RFID stuff is already handled by pscd).
