for language, it would use klocale as systemsettings, so there shouldn't be 
significant problems.

date and time is something would be possible as well, needs some hooks in 
policykit (is it possible to not have a password popup?)
for the timezone settings i don't think there is anything in kdelibs? and how 
distribution-specific is that?

for the wifi, we would need a graphical component backend agnostic, the same 
as the one used in the popup...

would be possible now to use the meego one, that is a qml component already, 
but is meego specific.

but yes, is something definitely pa2, it can be tried to be coded in a hurry, 
but there isn't time to do anything with enough quality at this point
