So is not adding 3000 tons of complexity for 3 (effectively 2)
presence plugins that the kded has.

I wanted the mpris plugin long gone, it's just not useful anymore,
which leaves auto-away and screensaver-away that can be merged into
one.

I'm all for fixing our current code by simplifying things, but I'm sorry
I will not accept *this* much code for handling what effectively should
be a single presence plugin that overrides everything.

I'd rather we spent our time on making things simpler and focusing on what
actually matters - like Telegram support - and remove old stuff that should
just die already.
