Yes, but you *have* to do this for embeddable components, that's why
Torben wrote KLibGlobal, which is used as object.

However the fact that there are two 99% similar interface, KGlobal and
KLibGlobal, and the additional fact that currently attributes like
app/component name, icon, etc. are only available through KApplication
(which makes it impossible to provide this for embeddable components
through shlibs) brought up the idea mentioned in the previous mail.
