Just pointing out that there's possible security considerations in doing 
it that way, for some users.  It's possible that's why it hasn't been 
implemented already.

Of course, it could also be simply that no one has thought of it, or if 
they did, it hasn't been a high enough priority to do it, yet.  If it'd 
make your use significantly easier, perhaps it'll be high enough on your 
priority list to at least find time to at least file it as a suggestion in 
bugzilla, or the the kde brainstorming site (which I forgot the name of 
but it should be linked from the kde main site).  If not, well, no bother, 
it might get implemented when someone gets around to it, or not...
