won't be necessarly used in the first release, so they may probably be disabled for now. (but would be delaying the problem)

in the future the idea is to have "themes" that when selected can change plasma theme, cursors, widget styles, icons etc, and the oxygen one will be shipped by default and quick way to "make it look like kde4"
