Hi Tim,

I think thas such a document could be of interest to KDE end-users too, not 
only to KDE promoter.

If you come out with such a nice howto, could you please communicate it to the 
KDE documentation team (kde-doc-english at kde.org) as well ? They could 
integrate it somewhere as part of the KDE documentation, for example into the 
FAQ or into the User's Guide.
