Marco,
          Thanks, I just realized how unclearly I was thinking. Of course
this is just for plasma so defaults in KDE apps they may need to be set,
can't be set. However is there a way to call kwriteconfig in the javascript
and write to configs on startup? If so then it would be very much possible
to replace config files in branding packages. I thought before that some
things would require a relaunching of the application, is this still the
case, does it depend on the application etc..? If I understand you correctly
then JavaScript can't remove files etc.. So the bash script in env (in my
case) will always be needed as it offers more flexibility.

Thanks for your Replay (Both you and Aaron)
