Support Gtk-based media players for now-listening

Description

The "now listening" support supports KDE players only, due their easy-to-access DCOP interface. KMess should support the popular Gtk players too.

Some of these players require KMess to link to another library. This is something we like to avoid, possible solutions are:

  • wait for the player to have DBUS interfaces
  • use relaytool from Autopackage to link it at run-time.

For code of XMMS2, see http://www.kmess.org/board/viewtopic.php?t=1569

With Qt4 we'll be able to use DBus easily :)

  • status changed from new to closed
  • resolution set to wontfix

After porting, we got DBus; so this is not an issue anymore :)

We just need someone to send us dbus bindings for other players, like rhythmbox and friends.
