No, in the previous discussion, I didn't mean Konqueror.  The way it is 
now, when a a viewer's KPart is used in Konqueror, it is a subset of the 
features that the viewer has when launched as a stand alone application. 
  Specifically, when used in Konqueror the KPart should not be able to 
save or print (this is redundant since Konqueror can already do this) or 
modify a file.

OTOH, the KParts used in an all-in-one viewer should all be usable in 
Konqueror as preview viewers.
