i have bound "toggle online/offline" to control-space, and when i see 
that screen, i hit control-space twice, and 90% of the time it 
unfreezes. the other 10% of the time i have to stop kontact/kmail, 
"killall" kontact/kmail from a shell, and run "akonadictl fsck" then 
"akonadictl vacuum" then "akonadictl stop". then i restart kontact/kmail 
and it restarts akonadi and all is well again for several hours.

the libraries for KDE, and the C++ programming language and runtime, are 
complexity personified. doing something asynchronous like this is very 
hard on the easiest day, and KDE + C++ never offer an easy day for it.
