I've been frustrated myself about this for a long time, but I doubt it will be 
changed soon. There are a number of "bug" reports about kdesktop's icon 
spacing and alignment. See this article for a tidbit:

As you can see, this was on a TODO list since July of last year. If I knew 
what the heck I was doing I'd do it myself, but I don't, so I guess we'll have 
to wait.

Regards,
Chad
