At some point yesterday I had it working and I was going to commit, but \
then after some IRC consultation,  we decided to "do something more \
visually appealing than that".   You can check a screenshot here (until it \

Krunner scrolling has been introduced quite recently, so it still has some \
rough edges, e.g. the absence of  the scrollbar. 
I would very much like to be able to find a satisfactory solution for this \
issue; I'll follow this thread to see if there are  interesting \
suggestions. 

 Thanks
