Katana (or any interface designed around key and mouse events) is not
for blind people, trying to slap text-to-speech on top of it was the
wrong thing to do to begin with
side note: speech-dispatcher tends to hang if the output device is not
configured properly (i.e. editing /etc/speech-dispatcher/speechd.conf
manually)

much simpler and easier to maintain, also it will be proper D-Bus
service now with no sockets, process title hack and whatnot. KCrash
and startkde script (in kde-workspace repo) have to be adjusted for
it tho
note that the internal KIO scheduler already has the functionality to
put slaves on hold but now they will be started as detached process.
eventually they may become plugins (they are loaded as such by kioslave
program) without event loop dispatcher
fixes application startup notification (ASN) and cleanup issues

it has to solve a few problems like:
1. blocking the current thread while listing, extracting or adding to
archive
2. lack of support for some archive formats such as 7-zip in the
previously available classes for dealing with archive
3. progress and error reporting
a KArchiveJob class may have to be implemented to solve the above
issues. the API is just as frustrating to use as KTar and KZip right now
tho and I am not happy with that but the class itself is a 3-rd rewrite
of what was once Python module, plugin for another project and now used
as base in library.

works as expected, services queries include two for IPv4 and one for
the advertised IPv6 address which have to be filtered:

kcompactdisc was remove because there is no use for it in the
current set of applications supported, if it is needed it will
need some work to make it use KMediaPlayer or whatever.
the Plasma VideoWidget class was dropped because custom widgets
(at some point) will be dropped unless absolutely needed and
hopefully getting rid of the heavy-weight QML stuff.
the new KMediaPlayer and KMediaWidgets classes are experimental
but they have been tested and they work as they should.
