Usually it's really for getting the device ID. Not sure why an open source app would need that, but presumably one could check the code to find out...

I don't know, but I'd guess to check whether the ministro Qt libraries are already installed or not.

I've searched for an index of the source code for full ten minutes, and yet I haven't found it. The coffice branch is public, but an online source code search engine would be terrific for casual grepping. Maybe it's time for building a YaCy draft code search.
