In case of (3) (one backup directory) I though rather that backup 
directory should reflect filesystem. As it is with trash -- you see 
there file simply deleted, not deleted by kate, by gwenview, and so 
on.

Another reason -- it would be really strange if the same file would 
have several backups (because it was edited by kate and kdevelop -- 
just an example).

IOW -- backups should be per file, not per applications.

Cheers,
