KConfigBase provides the API, KConfigBackEnd the backend, and KConfig provides
storage and ties the two together.
This gives you some design flexibility that allows for things as KConfigGroup
which implements the KConfigBase API, but shares the backend and storage of
another KConfig object.
I don't see any reason why it should go away. You say yourself that you hardly
ever use it as an "end developer", so why do you care about it either way?
Cheers,
Waldo
