hmm, i don't think i would call "freedom".. what it boild down is having 
access to kcms that all they would do is to configure some applications to 
behave "a little weird" on the target platform as would make it not integrate 
anymore.
i don't see it making much sense. itadds maintenance burden with little gain.

there may indeed be kcms that make sense and they should be moved somewhere 
else.

imaginging what i would expect "as an user", what i would like probably is a 
(very) little separed application that let's controls the few settings that 
make sense on that platform, rather than having full fledged systemsettings
