Ooops, I missed that question in my previous answer. There are two
reasons:

- We thought the GUI would be too complex for a kcontrol module,
  which already lives under certain size constraints (window size
  wise)

- We didn't want to launch kcontrol, etc. in the standalone mode.
  KXConfig also works when there is no X11 running (and no
  XFree86Config installed) . In that case it performs probing
  through ddcprobe and XFree86 -configure and then starts a minimal
  X with itself and twm as window manager.
