I'm using KDE4 trunk for Amarok development and for day to day use but I still
see this as a major regression. I think I already wrote a few posts ago that
probably this change to System Settings isn't only the developers' fault but is
probably due to politics and questionable usability policies by KDE's and/or
Kubuntu's usability experts or "experts".
To overquote everyone's favorite asshole, "This ‘users are idiots, and are
confused by functionality’ mentality [of Gnome] is a disease. If you think
your users are idiots, only idiots will use it."
Anyway, I would be willing to get my hands dirty on this code but I don't know
if I'm capable and if I have the time for it considering my current work on
Amarok so I would need assistance.
Also it would be frustrating to do a great and useful piece of software such as
KControl for KDE4 with treeview or maybe a patchset for System Settings to
implement this, only to find it not accepted upstream for utterly retarded
political or "usability" reasons.
