Marco wrote his email because we are probably going to be shipping rules for
active; we ran into an issue with applications written for Nemo where things
are done a bit differently. i'm guessing that's what motivated his mail.

this will become a bigger issue, btw, when we implement proper runtime shell
switching. as soon as Plasma Desktop is all-singing/all-dancing QML, i'm
hoping this will allow us to switch workspace concepts by simply destroying
and loading a new set of QML (no process restart!).

.. and this, i fear, is where our use of environment variables is likely to
let us down.

i'm quite tempted to move these things into a kded module that keeps track of
the workspace type details and publishes them via a dbus service ... but this
is a discussion for another day and another thread.
