do you really need to use singletons in the 4th generation of  
KDevelop? :-) I have nothing against singletons. I know people do  
amazing stuff with them (see eclipse). But, I really think you  
shouldn't use singletons in KDevelop 4, they just make the code flow  
more difficult to follow. For example, you don't even know when the  
instance is created.
