Very useful -- I was starting to create sysadmins.kde.org a while ago but 
didn't really have much information (and I'm not too experienced in Kiosk 
stuff but I think it is vital that we have it, so want to help somehow :) ), 
so hopefully that can help me start with something for the site.

It's becoming clear to me that while some decent documentation is greatly 
needed, we need some kind of application to help modifying kdeglobals 
graphically.

I'm not too sure what form this application would take though. Maybe the basic 
app could just handle the global stuff like whether to show "Report Bug" etc.

It could be provided with a set of XML files for various applications, e.g. 
Konqueror, which specify the Konqueror specific options. Being based on XML 
would make it easy to update the list of available features without having to 
hack the app.

(Zack has an app in kdenonbeta which makes it easy to edit config files via a 
gui, although you still need to be quite familiar with the way that the 
config files work in order to use it -- this would be nice functionality to 
provide as well, but I'm not too sure how the two apps could be integrated. 
Maybe they shouldn't.)

Ideas very welcome.
