feel free to work on it. the last causes of it were found to be related to
issues with x events in Qt.

this is very likely just the same issue as #1

a friend here in zürich did some sleuthing work and figured out when this
happens -> it turns out it is triggered when kbuildsycoca runs. with that
information in hand, i was able to fix it quickly, and that fix is in 4.8.3.

i also fixed the issue that preferred applications (e.g. "dolphin" == "file
manager") were not being properly associated with each other.

please feel free to offer a fix. i believe on the bug report for this item i
explain quite clearly what the issues are.


anyways ... we have an amazing process called "bug fixing". instead of
replacing one body of code with another under the mistaken impression that if
we just pick a different set of code all bugs will go away, we fix bugs that
exist.
