Whichever is going to happen, please do not remove the kwrite.desktop files
or the kwrite binary (provide a wrapper or something) . I'm sure quite some
people have .desktop files on their desktop or have scripts in which they 
call kwrite. Or maybe some users without even knowing, like for example
if they moved kwrite to another k submenu using kmenuedit and thus have
a local kwrite.desktop in $KDEHOME. They would probably get somewhat
confused when upgrading to KDE 2.2 and seeing their menu entry not
working anymore.

IMHO 

Bye,
