slc menu

Hi all,

at the moment, the share-like-connect menus are done in the following way, the 
menu is actually an exported component that can be used anywhere with
import org.kde.sharelikeconnect

this is used by the active containment where there is share-like-connect menus 
as a context menus for icons (done with long tap)

i think having it as a contextmenu there is not much avoidable, but i really 
don't like having the slc menu usable as an import, it should be all in the 
applet (and apps *really* not knowing anything about)

I can see several ways around:

* just get rid of context menus in active: long tap selects an icon, then slc 
menus are available from the usual place in the panel
* make the applet half c++, offer a dbus interface to open the menu at a given 
position (with all the 3 menus merged in one)
* other ideas?

Cheers,
Marco Martin
