+I'm surprised to see you writing it. After killing kded4:
+1. Klipper was not reacting.
+2. The keyboard layout systray icon was dead.
+3. Any changes in the way the clock is displayed (hour/date format) were not applied.
+4. Hibernation was completely broken (doing nothing), only logout, shutdown and restart worked.
+5. Power Management profiles were not displayed and could not be editer, nor were they functional.
+
+Other effects might have taken place, that was at first sight.
+
+So kded4 is indeed a *vital* process of the KDE4 desktop.

+
+Not easy to narrow it here either. 
+
+If it's an upstream one (can't test 4.6.90 in other distro for now), then the upstream QA is non-existent.
