On that note, it is now possible to do queries remotely using xmlrpc.
Just use 'trader' as object and 'query' as the function.  I had an
example somewhere but I don't remember if I actually commited it or
not.

Basically, the xmlrpc daemon just intercepts any requests that go to
the trader and use KTrader to get the response.  Simple :-)
