Just to recap... I asked if this feature was still needed. Clearly, the
consensus is that it is, even it it won't work in 4.0. So it stays, we
need to write a few lines (already done I might add) in the kcm... and
sit back and watch the bug reports that it doesn't work :-).
So it's been a pleasant conversation, and yes, let's get back to things
that need to be done *now* ;-). (Meanwhile, any 4.0 or non-release-cycle
apps that do want to use the setting will be still able to access it in
4.0.)
