Alas, no. I have also discovered that a dcop method (it's not a slot)
can't be a slot at the same time.

That's the reason for the following ugly thing in kdebase/kdesktop/desktop.cc:

void KDesktop::slotConfigure()  // normal slot
{
   configure();
}
 
void KDesktop::configure() // dcop method
{ 
 ... do the stuff here
}

Bah :(
