Fixed now for kde-4.1:
qdbus org.kde.konqueror-25018 /KBookmarkManager/konqueror notifyCompleteChange
I -think- you only need to call it on one running konqueror, it will tell the others. Didn't test though.

Sorry it took so long.

I guess.

I don't think so. It uses KSaveFile to write it atomically (write to temp file, rename temp file),
but no lock needed (the coordination between konq instances is done by dbus anyway,
only one of them is writing the file after making a change).
