Simply backup the .kde folder in your home directory. It is hidden by 
default.

I am using KDE on a single user PC, so I can only guess. I think by 
putting the .kde folder in /etc/skel, it will be copied to every newly 
created user.
The problem with this approach is that in some of the config files, there 
are entries which refer to the path of the original user, so these have 
to be changed.
