Hm, i would like the chicken.
I used the singleShot trick, but the speed issues remains. I even tried longer time \
intervals.

The plugin adds global keyboard shortcuts for changing the activity.
Defaults start from Qt::MetaModifier + Qt::Key_F1.

Initially, this functionality was implemented (without correct results) using \
KActitivities::Controller. Using DBus seems fine, just that... it forces kamd to \
start with 3-4 seconds delay - so it really needs modification/and i would like more \
guidance related to dbus :D. Other than that, feedback is needed. </pre>
