I tried that and it works ok, that is kwrite opens as I want it to.

However I also tried:
kdesu 'dbus-launch dolphin %i -caption "%c" %u'
in the command line in the program page in the Dolphin desktop file. That didn't 
work as Dolphin opens but I get the same KDEInit could not start 
"/usr/bin/kwrite" as before.

Hope this helps in some way
