Argl, that's bad. On the other hand, DistributionListManager isn't a 
QObject, so it couldn't emit a signal anyway without breaking binary 
compatibility.

Let's add a small class DistributionListWatcher, which contains the 
watching code and is able to emit a "changed" signal. We can integrate 
this class with DistributionListManager in KDE 4.0.

Where is the change notification for distribution lists needed, by the 
way?
