Thanks for the clarification.

But I am wondering if this plugin story is only for performance/memory 
saving? Because if the overheads are negligible, there is no need to 
complicate things. Eg. where to put that plugin module outside of kdecore, 
when it clearly belongs together with localization module in it.

I'll surely do benchmarks for performance drop due to symbol-lookup.

Regarding the memory overhead when kjs is loaded/linked, should there be 
any? KJS is anyway going to be loaded by something else (Konqueror...) in 
a KDE session.
