I agree that this should be a systemwide setting. It would increase application
homogeneity and make for a tighter KDE experience.

In addition to X close buttons on tabs, a systemwide setting to enable
middle-click on tabs for the purpose of closing them, similar to the Firefox
web browser, would be a welcome addition. There are 'hidden settings' for some
KDE applications to enable this, but not for all. For instance this will enable
middle-click tab closing in Konqueror:
$ kwriteconfig --file konquerorrc --group "FMSettings" --key
MouseMiddleClickClosesTab --type bool true
However, there is no similar setting for Kopete.

To summarize, this bug is asking for:
1) A central place to control tab closing behavior in the system setting
application, for all KDE applications.
2) The tab closing behavior should enable / disable the X close button on tabs,
and the ability to middle-click on a tab to close it.
