Review request for Plasma.


Summary
-------

I use Kickoff's search bar to quickly find applications and launch it from the results shown most of the time.

However, launching applications from these search results does not register an entry into the Recently Used Applications list of Kickoff.

This patch aims to fix this issue - by retrieving the name of the "service" launched from the krunner:// url (which the search results carry) and adding the service object created from it to the RecentApplications list.

Testing
-------

* Tried with applications I have installed - Firefox, various KDE Games (kde4-* entries), OpenOffice.org applications. All show up properly (without dupes) in recently used list after being launched from the search results.


Thanks,

Harsh
