Also tested on archlinux, same behaviour.

Still present in kde 4.11.97 ...

I can replicate here on Chakra, KDE SC 4.11.3. 
krunner should not launch a calculator result in this case, cause one is simply typing letters.

First thannks for taking time to fix the bug, its very much appreciated.
Though its not quite fixed yet, I can trick it by starting my query with numbers like "12ασδφ" in this case it will just ignore the letters and output the result. Say (2ασδφ+2 returns 4) (noticed while using the unit convert runner). Here is real world example "1 λίβρα σε κιλά" (1 pound as kg) returns 1.

Oups, I forgot I changed distro (Netrunner 13.12) and it provides kde-workspace 4.11.2, oddly their packages are named 4.11.99!? So it doesnt contain the fix. Sorry for the noice.
