There's a 'strigi' desktop search project that seems to be advancing fast, but contextual linkage is more than full-text search. Actually a full-text index doesn't contain explicit contextual information of any kind, and it can only be used to infer textual resemblances.

What I mean is you can notice that two files contain similar words, but you can't, for instance, notice that they are usually edited simultaneously. (Which would be nice to know within 'Open...' stuff).

To answer your question, yes, contextual linkage in KDE 4 is dead, unless somebody can tell us more...
