Which settings should go in the settings dialog of a Plasmoid?

Given I'm sort of referenced in the original email, I feel I should
comment. I'm personally against mixing settings which only affect a
plasmoid and settings which affect the whole workspace/computer.

I think the clock example is going to be even more confusing if we
have both your system time zone and settings for which time zone are
shown in the plasmoid both together in the same config window.
Splitting provides a sense of scope to the changes.

If there's a consistency across Plasma we'll obviously go with that
regardless of my comment above.
