See http://quickgit.kde.org/index.php?p=clones%2Fjuk%2Fmpyne%2Fjuk-MPRIS.git&a=summary I didn't have a good tester for it though, and it sounds as if you've implemented more of the interfaces (so far we only have the Player interface).

I call QApplication::closeAllWindows() because that's what Dragon's own KStandardAction::quit is hooked up to as well. Frankly I found it questionable too since I would expect that to break when an unclosable dialog window is open, but I figured I'd follow the Dragon developer's decision and went for consistency.

As for the track IDs, basically every player I tested with used /org/mpris/MediaPlayer2 in the track IDs and the plans for 2.2 seemed to sort of codify it with the NoTrack thing (which I now realize I misunderstood), that's why I went for it. I'll change that.

I also just pushed MPRIS 2.2 support, i.e. the fullscreen things, and mpyne is merging that into the JuK version.
