(like
for example konqueror, that is just a gui to the dolphin, khtml, konsole,
gwenview kparts).
But it seems to me, that the apps that need the communication are in DE's.
Which is fine, I just think that if you're choosing a smaller WM (Openbox,
awesome, JWM, etc.), where there isn't a need for an inter-app
communication that extensive, then it's a bit of an overkill really.
