well, I can attempt a list, but you'll see it's not that easy:

~/.kderc
~/.kde/share/apps/kwm/pics/*
~/.kde/share/apps/kdisplay/color-schemes/*
~/.kde/share/config/desktop*
~/.kde/share/config/kwmrc
~/.kde/share/config/kcm*
~/.kde/share/config/kfmrc
~/.kde/share/config/kdisplayrc
~/.kde/share/config/kpanelrc
~/.kde/share/icons/*

This is a minimal list. As you see, there's not much left outside :-)
