It occurs to me suddenly, that if you're going to use kdekillall, the app 
probably doesn't respond to dcop messages, since it's locked up somehow.  And 
in the event of that, a pid() function would be useless.

Perhaps kdeinit should keep a little db of name->pid, and use a fifo to make 
it available to scripts ?

Then you could awk the fifo and get the pid, and then kill that.
