Should be better linked from all places where modules are referenced, perhaps.

Hard to tell if something is just a user or an admin task, especially with 
autoconfig. Usually printers are per system, and not per user. I guess it 
will show print jobs from all users?

But by definition KDE Admin is for "packages that usually only a system
administrator might need", so well, this one is also needed by a plain user. 
So may printer-applet be a new KDE Util, welcome. :)
As long as the dependency on kdebindings is optional for the rest of the 
module, which it is, or?
