erm .. KRunner? =) if you're looking for use visible names for a configuration 
dialog, then i'd suggest we use a combination of names and screenshots:

Interface Style: [ Combobox ]
                          Screenshot

and the combo would be populated with entries like "Command Oriented" and 
"Task Oriented" or something along those lines.

except for the rename, it makes sense. no point in calling it ThemedDialog 
when it embeds the krunner dbus stuff =)
