[Kde-kiosk] README.kiosk for KDE4?

Hi all, 

We use SuSE 10.x with KDE3 in our 1500 retail locations for POS machines and we are working to upgrade them to SuSE11.x with KDE4.  With the current boxes, we use kiosktool to lock down the environments. 

KDE4 has kiosktool but it is not as functional as it was in KDE3.  So we are experimenting with manually duplicating the functionality.  I have discovered that the kdeglobal file exists in both versions' profile paths but evidently the keyword structure has changed as well because "shell_access=false" (for one example) which prevents starting a shell in KDE3 does not prevent it in KDE4. 

According to the documentation on KDE.ORG, there was evidently a file named README.kiosk that for KDE3 that listed all 120 different configurable variables.  Does an equivalent file exist for KDE4?
