There is already a krunner plugin that provides a permanent input
field on the desktop or a panel.  However, it is not available from
standard KDE packages, it is only on kde-look.org (although some
distros do offer packages for it).  It may be possible to get such a
widget included in plasma-addons.

There may be ways within krunner to limit individual krunner
interfaces to one runner, or to setup the initial configuration that
way.
