What about http://lxr.kde.org/source/playground/network/telepathy/ktp-nepomuk-service/nepomuk-storage.cpp#36 http://lxr.kde.org/source/playground/network/telepathy/ktp-nepomuk-service/tests/storage-test.cpp#41 http://lxr.kde.org/source/playground/network/telepathy/ktp-nepomuk-service/tests/tid-base-test.cpp#29 http://lxr.kde.org/source/playground/pim/zanshin/src/itemview/itemcontext.cpp#47 http://lxr.kde.org/source/playground/pim/zanshin/src/itemview/nepomukcontextmodel.cpp#36 http://lxr.kde.org/source/playground/pim/zanshin/src/utils/queries.cpp#30 http://lxr.kde.org/source/playground/pim/zanshin/src/utils/tagmanager.h#32

Are we fine breaking them?

Also can you guess-estimate the maintaince burden of this class being present during 4.9.x? Do you forsee it breaking/causing problems/making other fixes difficult to do?
