If you don't add any comments/ratings/tags etc. you could
just copy the files over (eg. using rsync),
but presumably you would like to have something like
  http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=103201
  http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125474
(feel free to add your vote ;-).

Another option is to activate the writing of this information
into the IPTC tags and then this information is
used when the files get imported on your desktop computer.
