Yes, they use KApplication::startService... so that it can try to benefit
from the kdeinit feature (for instance, if you have a konsole button, etc.)

Waldo, how could we integrate this ? Making KRun use KApplication::startService
automatically, if what it's running is a desktop file ?
I remember there was an issue due to KRun being able to pass a list of URLs
(in general, not for kicker!) and startService not being able to, but
you fixed that, right ?
