Suppose we have several running programs, that use these settings. Then we launch Dolphin or its "General" KCM and change sorting mode. We write changes to the configuration file and ask kdelibs in other applications to emit signals. And these other kdelibs instances have to reload the configuration file in order to supply new values to applications. Without this change I saw that other Dolphin instances were not applying changes when I was changing the settings in one instance. If the configuration file not reloaded, there is no sense to send events to other instances at all.
