KGlobalSettings::completionMode() can be read, is not consistent in KDE though

Please do not touch this option. It is not only used by applications. It is 
also used by widgets such as KLineEdit and KComboBox. Its intention is to 
allow people to change the completion mode for all the applications from a 
single point, i.e. kdeglobals. If applications store their own completion 
modes and restore them later, it is up to them to check and make sure they 
are correctly using the current global default as needed. I think both 
Konqueror and Minicli need to be fixed in this regard.

Huh ? You can change the global default value in kdeglobals
