No, I planned to do it while in the sprint, but I forgot, and then
I've been busy the last few days with the string freeze for the next
release. My bad.

Going through the settings file, I've only found the Chart Settings
group, which has the maximum legend size.
We should also have the line width setting, but I'm not sure that was
ported correctly, so it should be added again, and I can wire that
later to the correct functionality in kreportchartview.
Then, also the default CSS for reports should be there.

So, those 3 would be a good starting point for the report settings
page, do you think so?
I'm sure more will come up as we go.

Regards,
Alvaro
