the applet representation of an icon is not the file itself. it is a link to 
it. i'm really hesitant to increase the bond between them.

the request to have desktop icons delete the files they represent is mostly a 
problem with desktop icons as a concept in general. frederikh's work on a 
proper file lister plasmoid is really the answer here, not creating specially 
behaving plasmoids that map to files on disk some of the time. (remember that 
other Icon instances map to entries in the sycoca for launching apps, among 
others.)

implement QList<QAction*> contextActions()
