I would hesitate to even call it a problem though! Apart from whether 
the modems com port can be changed, Kppp can not be expected to list all 
possible ports (if you look in /dev you see there are potentially 
hundreds) and that is why "modem" is one of the choices and exists for 
that very reason. This should always be linked to your modem com port. 
Then he can use kppp which of course comes with its own tray activity 
indicator so he kill two birds with one stone.
