Btw, did you had a look in each case to substitute it with a correct
notification ? or just replaced each ocurrence of QApp::beep() ?

I mean, the original idea of KNotify was to be used
to differenciate each kind of notification.
For example, if instead of using KNotifyClient::beep() in kcalc,
you use a "real" notification for kcalc's "division by zero" errors
(remember this is an example), you could generate a theme that
includes wav files for this notification that pronnounces =

"Division by zero" in a nice voice. I think this is not only a
geek-thing, but may be useful for semi-blind people or something.
