Two issues with dot.kde.org

Hi,
First please let me congratulate on the new dot's design.

Now, it's probably already known, but let me mention 2 things:

1. It would be cool to have compatibility code for old-style of URLs,
e.g. if you google for 'qt creator', "New Qt Creator IDE from Qt
Software" dot story appears on the list with (unfortunately not
working) dot.kde.org/1225455418/ url.  With the new dot we have lost
quite a few links from sources like blogs or email archives, that
(unlike google) won't update automatically.

I guess the fix is possible to do as an "old->new: url
mapping/redirection, assuming we have the old IDs.

2. Mozilla Sidebar support (http://dot.kde.org/static/bar). Perhaps it
is old crappy technology, but worked nice with the old dot. It's not
the case now.
