Though I do wonder if it wouldn't be easier to just make knewstuff download to share/apps/kvtml instead of share/kvtml so anyone with existing data from a libkdeedu install can keep using those files.

Possibly. For now I think we should just stick to how it worked in the past. What problem are these changes trying to fix? KNewStuff downloading files to the wrong place ? (or a place that kanagram doesn't see them)?
