Ok, I attached the modified patch for the make-it-snow branch. I removed the 
entry Arts::SynthModule from Normalize.mcopclass, thus it's no longer shown 
in the effects widget. I don't know if that's the proper way to go, but I 
think it's a good thing to hide the effect from the user since it's intended 
to be only used through the Normalize plugin.

I had a little trouble getting the plugins to load without a config file. I 
managed to get by by setting:

X-KDE-PluginInfo-EnabledByDefault=true

There are no hardcoded default plugins which should be loaded as a fallback 
when the config file is empty.

It would suffice to find out which backend is used and then use the 
appropriate normalization effect which would have to be written for every 
backend separately. But this would mean for the plugin to have build 
dependencies to all possible backends, hm.
