SUMMARY

I noticed that Dolphin's settings menu appears to have 3 different settings
that the user can select. I think this can be tough for some users to have to
click so many times to find something specific. Ideally, we want to provide
users with a one-stop-shop where they can do all things related to one specific
activity.

In this case, the activity of editing settings is split into 3 different
modules. Understanding that our KCMs are all modular, I would love it if we
could combine Dolphin settings with the Shortcuts settings, and the Language
settings into one UI. That way we make it a one-stop-shop.

If the argument is that these other KCMs come from System Settings and are
general in their behavior, we should generally link those KCMs to System
Settings instead. That way users understand the context of their changes.
Otherwise, users can be confused to realize they are changing general settings
vs Dolphin-specific settings.
