I might point out that some people are actually looking for the *system* 
settings (i.e. global settings) and their problem is that they can't 
find them because they don't exist -- but this is another issue.

IMHO, system settings (i.e. global settings) should only be available if 
you log into KDE as root, but they do need to be available by using a 
GUI rather than having to edit files by hand.
