Review request for Plasma.


Changes
-------

Added unit test.


Summary
-------

There is some code duplication in that some plasmoids share very much of 
program logic but actually differ in just a setting. E.g. the recently made 
ShowActivityManager plasmoid, which just is a DBus call launcher. The Icon 
plasmoid is an example of this made right. I'd like to have more generic 
plasmoids. Even better, I'd like to have an easy way to configure them.         
                                                                                
                                                                                
                   
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                           
Let's see the code. config.patch shows a way to load a config metadata file and 
fill a designated plasmoid with the configuration data (metadata.desktop). We 
search for a X-Plasma-ConfigApplet property that defines the plasmoid to 
configure and load. Additional properties define the plasmoid settings. This 
allows us, for example, to easily provide access to any webservice without code 
duplication.
