As I've said before, many of these options are selectable in systemsettings -> Default Applications. Yes. Many, not every single one.
There are many other indexing applications out there and there are the Perl and Ruby tookits that are built around things like Plucine. Making the indexing tool one of them should be an option.
In fact so much of the rest of KDE (and Linux in general) is about the setting of run-time options that decouple away from compile-in choices.
Well yes, and i am again repeating the same sentence: you can remove baloo-file and be done with it. Or disable it via config key/placing $HOME as blacklisted location. As with 4.13, and in the past, and also with other DE's, wrt metadata/searching, there is one or none. I am sure KDE devs would welcome suggestions, and especially code how to do it differently.
What you are saying is that "if it isn't there it can't run" Big deal. All or nothing. The other stuff John has discussed, the change that now needs positive intervention by the user to disable whereas before disabled was the default. I doubt very much that the developers are incapable or need an old Perl/Ruby hack like me to point them to code fragments that already exist in the KDE suite. As I keep saying, there are already examples in systemsettings and already exmples of how to invoke an external application that has been set in systemsettings. -- When languishing for solutions, don't ask "Have I got the correct answer?"
