I did not yet study the ggz documentation, so this might be a stupid question,
but what additional value does kggz have over the pure ggz API? Is that 
documented somewhere? I would guess that kggz contains a GUI based on KDE, what
else?

for games written in python like kmj I see those possibilities:

1. ignore kggz and directly use the ggz python bindings, rewriting 
those parts of kggz I need in python
2. write python bindings for kggz

For libkmahjongg I chose option 1 because kmj has more complex requirements
that might have been difficult to add on top of libkmahjongg.

for kggz it probably depends on how much I would have to rewrite in python
