Not likely to happen; KDE4 has quite a few more colors than KDE3. The 
chances you won't need to do tweaking are virtually nil (especially 
since, to import a KDE3 scheme, we would have to make wild guesses how 
to assign the colors that didn't exist in KDE3).

Well, https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=157726 has been out there 
since forever... There are a few streamlining things the new kcm could 
use, that I haven't had a chance to implement. Anyone want to help?

I see you mentioned using strace to find where the settings are now. Why 
not just look at the source code? (Or, even easier, just look at a KDE4 
scheme...)
