You're right. In "Systemsettings" you can set the program associated with all 
kinds of file types, even ones you didn't know existed in the first place. It 
takes a while to configure it, but it changes the association across programs 
and desktop environments. My Debian is running on Gnome and it works there 
too. I'm not sure if you can exclude specific programs from the file 
associations set up here, as you would like to do. I guess you have to do some 
research, if you can tell Konqueror to open PDFs embedded, ignoring the global 
configuration. You'd probably have to do this somewhere in Konqueror.
