I've talked with dfaure about that about a year ago, he seemed positive towards 
making this history part of the lib public API. You need to talk to him though to get 
it done.

Also, the runner should completely replace the browserhistory runner, both in our 
sources but also its pluginnames. There shouldn't be two runners, and users who have 
configured the "old" one, should get the new one automatically.

In the code, you have this TODO to connect signals to update. That's actually a 
pretty important thing (the history changes much more often than you restart 
KRunner). So with this added, and David having made the necessary changes to libkonq, 
it can go in.

You can test your runner by only enabling that one, and then see if you still get 
crashes. Maybe konqhistory isn't thread-safe?

The code looks good to me, otherwise. 

Welcome to Plasma development, btw :)
