I'm sorry if I'm about to sound rude but it looks like there's no other way of
getting the message accross...

1) If YOU would have CAREFULLY read what I wrote you would probably have
spotted that I fully understand the need for SOME services to be launched and
you would not have to repeat that over and over.

2) If YOU would have CAREFULLY read what I wrote you would probably have
spotted that I precisely mentioned one service that NEED NOT being launched,
regardless of the app that was launched in the first place : PowerDevil.

The reason I mention this one is because PowerDevil is causing some troubles on
my laptop (adjusting brightness when it should not, based on the wrong
assumption that I'm running on battery) and it makes it quite clear that this
particular service is launched everytime a KDE 4 apps is started from my KDE 3
session.

If you have any VALID reason to launch services such as PowerDevil outside of a
KDE 4 session for every single KDE 4 apps being started please explain them.
Otherwise please consider accepting that this really is a bug which can (and in
my precise case does) induce unwanted interactions with the running session or
unwanted hardware settings change.

The system resource waste I mentioned does not affect me but it really could
become an issue as KDE 4 will grow and more such services will be added,
especially on lower end hardware (my laptop has rather good specs overall).

kind regards

p.s : I mean no offence but, please, read the whole sentences this time before
answering and marking this bug report as invalid...
