Or,

    kwriteconfig --file kdeglobals --group KDE --key SingleClick false

You can use this to setup an /etc/kde/kdeglobals so all users default
to double-click mode.

But, this doesn't take effect for any currently open 'dolphin' windows
(but it does for any subsequently opened windows).  I tried:

    qdbus org.kde.dolphin-21870 /MainApplication reparseConfiguration

but doesn't seem to be the right thing to do to notify the running dolphin

Anybody know how to signal running applications to reprocess kdeglobals
(or their own KConfig setup?)
