Have you looked at the other project-specific KCMs? E.g. 
kcm_kdev_makebuilder.desktop has this:

[Desktop Entry]
Icon=kdevelop
Type=Service
ServiceTypes=KCModule

X-KDE-ModuleType=Library
X-KDE-Library=kcm_kdev_makebuilder
X-KDE-FactoryName=kcm_kdev_makebuilder
X-KDE-ParentApp=kdevplatformproject
X-KDE-ParentComponents=KDevMakeBuilder # this is important
X-KDE-CfgDlgHierarchy=BUILDTOOL # not sure how important this is

try to play with these values.

bye
