I don't want to see such scary implementations in each and every Qt5-based application that wants to enforce a single instance.
  
  
  I totally agree. Copying + extending/refactoring QtSingleApplication + putting it in a framework is the way to go here.
  
  It's robust, QtCreator has been using it on all major platforms as 'unique application' solution for ages. I agree the coupling to Q*Application is not perfect, and could be relaxed.
  
  Note this change here only solves the issue on Windows; if we ever want to get Kleopatra in shape for OS X, we'll have to add another few hundred LOCs of platform specific code...
  
  Why not (finally!) fix this in a way all KDE applications can benefit from? :\

  Dito.
