What do you want to do? Why do you need the difference
between local and global directories? 

E.g. "normal" applications use locate() to find a resource 
(either global or local), and use locateLocal() to find a 
place where they can write it to (local).

But somehow I think that kpanel wants do something more
so for that you need to tell _what_ you want to do.

Cheers,
Waldo
