It will be less work to port directly to KConfig_Compiler + KConfigDialog than 
via KAutoConfig. For example, the default values don't need to be added to 
the .ui files. Also, KAutoConfig has some restrictions that KConfig_Compiler 
doesn't have that may make porting via KAutoConfig unnecassery difficult.

Cheers,
Waldo
