kde-gnash is the name of a standalone player, 'klash' is the name of
the kparts module (I guess, not being a KDE power users I don't really know
if there's such a thing as a kparts module name).

I belive soldumper is able to dump both the .sol created by Gnash and
the .sol created by other players. They shouldn't be in a different format.
Actually, it should be possible to share .sol files between gnash and
other players.
