For some of us, it's still important. I have documents that I can open only in 
StarOffice, but not in OpenOffice. :-( Newer OpenOffices may help, but it's 
too big piece of software to update it regullary. I would say that the new 
kio_fonts based font install should replace the kcm module, only if it 
provides all the functionality that was present in the old one. BTW, can it 
do the trick with Disable/Enable the fonts (and thus recreating the needed 
config files) after the distro config tool breaks the installations? ;-) In 
my case after installing a new package and running SuSEConfig, I had no 
anti-aliased fonts. I had to disable and re-enable the TrueType fonts.
