Exactly. I *do* know that it's somehow ksmserver's responsibility and
the applications that are running (and would therefore be eligible for
restart) are recorded in said ~/.kde/share/config/ksmserverrc, but I
doubt that I can just modify that file without telling ksmserver!

I think it would be OK to just restart the application. Restoring the
application's internal state might be the application's responsibility,
e.g. by storing it in an rc file in the user's home directory.

Thanks anyway.
