Hi.
This is no bug.
I suggest using kde-devel for such questions btw.

Normal, that's another KConfig object. There's no cross-kconfig-object
notification, and this is exactly why it's much better to write stuff
to KGlobal::config instead of writing it to kdeglobals by hand.

They should, yes.
(KConfigGroup is only one way. You can also setGroup(new)/setGroup(old)
or use KConfigGroupSaver. I'm just saying this in case you see old code:
if it uses any of those 3 ways, it's fine. For new code KConfigGroup is the best though).
