Hmm, but isn't the other way round much more important? When we change 
colors/style/fonts in KControl, Qt-only application should change as well. In 
other words: we should do what qtconfig does _in_addition_ to what we do for 
KDE applciations.

qtconfig really is a poor-man's KControl for Qt applications for those not 
running KDE.
