Better konqueror integration of KParts

First: I want to apologize, the questions i'm gonna ask are pretty obvious. I can't imagine the requested information isn't in some kde doc, but for some reason I spent a long time on kde.org and google, and there is absolutely NO way to find an answer, just doics about kpart for devs. If there is, I'll fill in a bug report about the kde community being not structured enough :)

And now:

I want my kde applications being more integrated to konqueror. I know there is kpart for this.
In the dialog "Settings" -> "Configure Konqueror" -> "File Associations" -> "All" I told kde to embed everything. Very Nice! But I'm not yet satisfied. I hoped my file-browsing experience were enhanced in this way:

-a "playlist view" from kaffeine while browsing mp3's
-a "photo album view" while browsing pics (I don't want to generate index.html's for that.. i want it to be *ahum* windows-explorer-like... aiaiai)
-maybe more integration? (KTorrent, KWrite/Kate, Kerry)

I can't imagine such a thing isn't possible (If it works for KPDF why not for other things?), so my questions is:

How to accomplish this?

Thank you very much.

RE: Better konqueror integration of KParts

If you want a arbitrary application embedded inside Konqueror you should dive into the source and make KParts of them. But I wonder how useful it is to make KTorrent a KPart, I fail to see why.

Run

Source code

 
1

$ ktradertest KParts/ReadOnlyPar

which KParts are available to embed inside Konqueror.

Well.. maybe not really useful, but I like to load ktorrent in a new tab when I click a torrent. (Same applies to KGet btw)

Source code

$ ktradertest KParts/ReadOnlyPar
query is : KParts/ReadOnlyPar
genericServiceType is :
constraint is :
preference is :
kio (KMimeType): WARNING: KServiceType::offers : servicetype KParts/ReadOnlyPar not found
got 0 offers.


I'm not a really good coder btw, so writing it myself is not really an option :)

I made a typo. It should have been:
