Well the desktop-style manager(page2) and the desktop-theme manager (page4) 
should be putt in a extra .cpp file so they can be implemented by an kcm 
module. However, both are too incomplete to be worth it. If they are finished 
we can think about a new look & feel section. Double work should be avoided, 
though.

A tutorial would be needed to be maintained. For maintaining convinience it 
should be in html. I think Mandrake has made an online tutorial sometime ago. 
The last page of kpersonalizer could load the khtml part. If someone is 
really interested in making a tutorial and maintaining it, I will look at the 
code.
