That's what I do in konqueror's sidebar. The first time it is opened it
copies the system wide entries to the user's share hierachy
(.kde/share/apps/konqsidebartng/entries) after that only those entries
are used and I provide a menu entry "rollback to system defaults" for
resyncing/restoring (modified) system default entries.
