I don't think this is important at all. After all, we've never been
enemies and everybody feels nice with a working solution. We'll see
GStreamer adoption of KDE, and I feel perfectly fine with using Qt
software as a daemon, taken that beginning with Qt4, there is also
available a non-GUI library QtCore [1].
Whatever technology is picked to write the first usable daemon should be
used.

If people still feel like using two daemons, we could at least merge the
parsing-related code.
