this came up on kde-core-devel a couple weeks back and i recommended that the 
authors for these tools work together in the future and they responded in the 
positive.

kevin ottens is writing a hardware layer for kde4 (code is already in svn) 
that will make this a lot easier to do (less low level detection code 
required in each app).

my recommendation would be to help this process of cooperation for kde4 
networking tools by getting involved with those projects in a constructive 
manner.
