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

Ehh... I know I implemented it! Please re-read what I wrote carefully. The 
only change I am suggesting is that if the user chooses to use the default 
completion mode applications should not save this setting in their own config 
file. That way if the global configuration is changed, they will use the new 
global default the next time they read the config file. See attached patch...
