Yep. And you can even use the potential sometimes of the developers who are 
on CVS :) What I did with kpersonalizer was adding autostart for the first 
time the user logs in but I wasn't sure if it really works. As at that time 
the personalizer screwed up people's config files, the complaints told me 
that the autostart worked LOL 

You have to see it from a positive side once in a while and not say complains 
suck. In fact they don't - as long as nobody uses swear words on you. Please 
give your best to get the IDG award at LWE for KDE; noatun helps here as a 
part of KDE 2.2 and AFAIK you didn't get any complains at least from me for a 
while now - which means I'm quite happy to use noatun instead of xmms :)
