which is just about consistent with:

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.

ie. even someone from trolltech doesn't advocate switching KDE to use
the qtconfig mechanism...  just thought i'd point that out.
