Do you want the desktop at all? Otherwise you could disable Kicker and 
KDesktop from starting in the first place, which should also give what you 
want.

I don't have the docs here at hand, but IIRC you should create an 
empty .desktop file with the same name as the original that sets 
'Hidden=true' under share/autostart in the profile or $KDEHOME.

So, to test, create a ~/.kde/share/autostart/panel.desktop that looks like

[Desktop Entry]
Hidden=true

and a kdesktop.desktop that contains the same. Login as the test user and you 
should have no panel or desktop.

PS: Since this is untested, please let us know whether this actually works! :)
