that's a sure way to piss off everyone who doesn't want a panel. the ability 
to run plasma-desktop without panels is a feature, one that was requested for 
kicker years and years ago as well in fact.

i still think that much easier would be templated containments. right click -> 
add panel -> Panel With Default Widgets. that would either run a small 
javascript or just suck in an exported appletsrc snippet; perhaps both.
