If someone does not have kaffeine installed, there's no
x-mplayer2.desktop file?  Isn't it better to move this file to
mplayer or kdelibs and remove from kaffeine too?

If this goes in kdelibs before the kdelibs C++ trans kaffeine and
kmplayer can silently rely on it's availabilty without require a
given version ;)

a note about the x-mplayer2.desktop change can't hurt

Another x-ms-wmp.desktop:  another candidate?

Maybe it's a bloody stupid idea (low gain/work ration):
add a check to cdbs kde.mk (or lintian if mimelnk are used/
planed by freedesktop) to check for mimelnk
files and complain/warn if there is one. ignoring x-<my-appname>.desktop
by default).  Collecting them in it's own pkg, with a small
footprint.
