The feeder is indexing the pim data and feeding it into nepomuk, iiutc. I 
don't know why it should affect the completion, which is done by *querying* 
nepomuk.

The feeder fails to always index contacts as an object recognized by the query 
kmail uses for the completion. And one would think that if a contact was 
indexed once, that would be enough if it does not change - but that is not so, 
things work in a weird, random way ime. Maybe akonadis internal ID is used for 
something it shouldn't be used for, I don't know anything except that last 
time there was reliable completion was with kmail 1.

:(
