Thanks! Both are very welcome contributions. I've already put 
the .desktop-file in CVS. Two quick question about the spec-file:
1) I a note about r.xml (kate syntax highlighting definition) being already 
present in kdelibs. That's true, but the version in kdelibs is - currently - 
pretty much outdated. It would be nice, if the rkward-version could be 
installed instead, but I'm not sure, whether this would be possible with rpms 
at all.
2) Sorry about the dumb question, but as a debian user I have no idea about 
this: How do you generate a .src.rpm from a .spec-file?
