Exactly. My approach was rather similar to Ivan's I think: I have a dbus
service that handles all the events. Apps simply call a set of methods
on that interface. In case of non-KDE apps this can be done by KRun or
even Konsole. I think here is where Ivan and I should merge our work.

it is up to you (or the service you ask) where you draw the line -
whether automatically annotated files are included or not.
