thanks!

Ok, will do. It may take me a while, though, as I'll have to be careful
not to break our automated builds on our Ubuntu PPAs (as pointed out by
Meik). But ideally, I'd also like to combine this step with handing
over our official debian packaging (i.e. the "debian-official" folder)
to the debian qt/kde-team.

Is there any hope for that, or what can I do to make that happen?

Not quite what we want. Having several instances is quite ok (one for
each of several "projects"), _except_ that's very unlikely to be the
thing a user wants when selecting to open several .R-files (all files
should go into the same "project"). So what we are looking for is:

1. When invoking RKWard from the Application Menu, always start a new
instance.
2. When invoking RKWard from Open With..., always open the file in an
existing RKWard instance (if any).

We already have a command line parameter "--reuse" to select the
desired behavior. But how to fit both into a single .desktop file?

Regards
Thomas
