The cache is in the kded service - so no need to sync anything. Or I 
misunderstood you? So the memory overhead is not big at all.

Well. this change can be trivial - comment out the QHash that stores the info. 
But I still don't think it is a good idea - even when there is only 1 second 
per query, it would be slow - just imagine now that switching virtual desktops 
has a > 1 second lag.
