As far as I know you can't address an arbitrary window. However all kde applications have a dcop module (or whatever that's called) that corresponds to their window.
For instance if I type dcop konsole-4414 konsole-mainwindow\#1 (4414 being my konsole pid atm)
I get a list of 135 functions, like setSize, focus, maximize, raise, etc etc.

Exactly. But not every application is a kde-application. And in fact, there are also kde-application which does'nt offers this interface, ktorrent oder dialogs for example.

So, a complete scriptable interface, for every window, would be nice. I know, there exist wmctrl, but this prog has limits.
