Yes, this solves a problem with libkmahjongg being used by multiple 
apps. The only problem is that currently we have a default to fallback 
to. Not sure how we could handle this, but maybe it is "good enough" to 
fallback to an existing tileset (anyone, or the first in the list) if 
the one requested by the app does not exist?

Interesting idea, let us talk about how to implement it then!

In any event, we will have to handle at least the case of existing 
config files pointing to default.desktop, right? :)
