OBJECT/EMBED applets

[George Staikos]

I was unable to get this patch to apply to 3.1 branch, and my machine with 
HEAD is misbehaving right now (I can't start KDE currently for some reason).  
That being said, I read through the patch quickly and it looks like the right 
approach.  Dirk?  Should this go in?  I could even see this going into 3.1 
branch.
