in fact "Your package accepts/processes untrusted input" raises
again the question why not herden the complete distribution since
Browsers, PDF readers, office suites, imageviewers and so on all
are processing untrusted input at the end of the day

please keep also in mind that this is only a small subset
of processes running on my KDE homeserver while no graphical
login is active listed in a ssh-session

in fact there are *a lot* of more processes which can be considered
as "long running" after login in the GUI and on always-on machines
the KDE session is running for days
