James, you know well enough that the fact that something doesn't work on your 
installation does not automatically mean that KDE have released something in a 
'seriously broken' state.  When those of us using 'normal' distros can use the 
features it does suggest that you are missing something in your 
build/installation.

As for your specifics - to change the time zone requires root permission, as 
does renicing a process, and yes, they do work.
