Hmm, right. But this means that IProject has to parse the locally-cached
project file everytime its asked for a KSharedConfig::Ptr (i.e. at least
a reparseConfiguration() is needed).

That is rather hard. If KDevelop crashes we can't do anything anymore
(without hooking into various unix signals, I think), especially not
upload a locally cached file.
