  I agree. KDEInstallDirs.cmake seems to be wrong location for this functionality.
  
  What I'm envisioning is a ecm-env.sh-like script which gets installed into `$PREFIX/bin` as soon as you install ECM.
  
  Pseudo-cmake code:
  
    configure_file(${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/ecm-env.sh ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/ecm-env.sh)
    install(FILES ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/ecm-env.sh DESTINATION ${BIN_INSTALL_DIR})
