The approach I outlined with KDEDIRS will give you this. You need
to add a directory to KDEDIRS which contains additional settings
for this user. Depending on the user you can add different
directories. 

This is not restricted to kpanel only, ALL applications and ALL
settings will take advantageous of this.

(E.g. you can provide groups of users different default styles,
different default colors, different default icons and even
different levels for ksnake).
