KDE-wide scripting (in a lateral, application-neutral sense)

So this is the sort of idea that's way out of my league practically speaking, but since every major KDE application seems to getting scripting based on the same framework, I was wondering about the feasibility of installing and managing scripts which operated across all of KDE as a whole, laterally-speaking.

Let me explain with an example. There is a suggestion in this forum for KTouch to auto-generate lesson plans based on the common typing mistakes you make. It seems to me that gathering text input from every KDE text field, or maybe just written in KWord, Blogilo, Konqueror etc. That would be something you'd have to do desktop-wide, so not just within KTouch. If a typing-analyzer were instead administered from within KDE System Settings, then it could it just as easily be used as biometric security data?

Or maybe some sort of script which allows drag and drop connections between like-typed input fields, regardless of application, as long as both were Qt?

My whole idea pretty much boils down to a Get Hot New Stuff button for system-wide scripts the same way Plasma scripting is opened, and scripts in individual applications like Amarok.
