yes, but i don't see why it would matter to an AbstractRunner *where* the text
comes from. all that matters is that the text is there to match against.
where the text comes from only matters to whatever sets up the SearchContext.
in the case of krunner that would be, "do i use my built in line edit, a stock
query based on a d-bus call (e.g. "SESSIONS" for the user switching) or
whatever is on the clipboard?"
but once krunner has made its mind up about what text to use ... it's not
relevant to anyone else.
