[Nix-dev] optional packages for KDE

[roconnor at theorem.ca]

I used to use wicd for my wireless configuration under ubuntu.  I was 
looking into making a nix package for it, but it is currently beyond my 
nix ability.

If someone else is interested in packaging wicd for nix, it would probably 
get done faster than waiting for me.
