SVN commit 865052 by weilbach:

Add for review and hopefully ready for KDE 4.2.
This applet tests and connects to various DBUS interfaces of messaging apps (yes \
parts might be needed to port to Decibel (Kopete DBus interface) for 4.2). It is \
nothing special, but very useful to me, since I don't need to unlock my screen to see \
if there are new messages. It keeps the privacy by only notifying about a changed \
message status but nothing more. Issues:
* Layout is done in a big function which repeats code for every interface. It might \
                be possible to do this better.
* DBus usage might be improvable.
* Currently the counter starts when the screen is locked. So if you go away, get \
messages in the time between being idle and screen lock, you won't get notified. This \
is, if it is desired, fixable with a small kded module loaded on startup and tracking \
changes for each app combined with a dbus connection to kscreensaver. Maybe Decibel \
can give similar features (like showing all messages of the last 10 minutes).
