There's the TerminalInterface class, which the Konsole KPart 
inherits/implements. It's actually pretty clean, contains only 3 methods. So 
it would only be a matter of including it in a smoke lib (kdeui would be a 
good place, I think) and qobject_casting the KPart to the interface. Should be 
pretty easy. In theory.
