imho:

instead of eviscerating the application of the primary feature that makes it 
useful to a significant group of users of that application (sys admins), i'd 
suggest starting a new application (even if it shares a lot of the same code) 
if you feel you must go this route.

remote monitoring is _the_ reason for using ksysguard for many of its users. 
without that feature, it becomes completely and entirely useless.

it may also be possible that a clever refactoring wuld accomplish the desired 
simplification as well, though i assume you've looked at that possibility 
already.
