Hello, 

One of the first things I do when I get a new KDE set up is go about changing
settings to something that I can use,  This includes setting the simple win9x
theme, turning off all animations, setting dolphin to list view, turning off
the selection thing, making it so files require double click...

I know that my preferences are not likely to be switched to default behavior, (
I could go into a long list of why they should be, but that has been done and
would serve nothing except to alienate myself)

This ability would help distributions set their environment the way they want
it.

This ability would also let me set up my system defaults easier, as I should
just have to add one file into /usr/share, and add one change to a global
configuration file... (or perhaps just add my configuration file into one
location)

The point of this is to make it automatic, something from system-settings that
lets me export it.


This wizard would include a list of applications that could be included, and
could be "drilled into" say if I wanted to keep default settings on some other
things that I changed on my system..

This wizard would not be simply for kde-kiosk, although kde-kiosk could
potentially use something like this.

I believe the format would be a diff to the defaults... maybe multiple diffs in
folders in a zip file if that makes it easy.

Reproducible: Always
