What's bloat ? (k, there should be a option to disable the load of the 
console but which other things are bloated ???).
WE NEED A NAME ! Beta 1 comes out next week (or in 2 weeks) and until then we 
need a name (better, we need it as fast as possible because a new name will 
cause a rename of the most files and all KantClasses to i.e. KateClasses).
