You can send a command and have it execute, but it needs to use the correct
character from your terminfo, not \n or \r\n.   Most likely this is '^M' in
your case, so the following shell function will send a command to a session

sendtab () {
    sessionno=$1
    cmd=$2
    session="/Sessions/${sessionno}"
    dbus-send --session --dest=${KONSOLE_DBUS_SERVICE} --type=method_call \
    --print-reply ${session} org.kde.konsole.Session.sendText string:"$cmd^M"
}

* Note that you must use the actual control character (0x0d) and not just the
string '^M' in your script (i.e.  ctrl-v+<enter key> in vim/gvim)
