KConfig's always cascade AFAIK, includeGlobals only means if kdeglobals is 
read in addition to it (which should be deprecated and removed from the 
default - 99% of all cases we don't want to read kdeglobals). 

I disagree with the rename of the enum, but otherwise I think this cleanup is 
unfortunately needed to be able to implement other than file-based backends 
for kconfig (finally). 

Now, the problem is that we can't merge all of this due to the risk of late 
minute breakage for beta3. regarding the diffs, most of the stuff could be 
put in already (e.g. the extra includes), and the diff should shrink by not 
renaming the enum.
