Maybe what you want can be achieved by running KDE in kiosk mode. However,
never did this myself, so you should search kde.org or Google for the
details.

Why? System directories look nearly the same on any Linux system, so it
doesn't really make sense to restrict read access to them. For other, private
directories you could take away permissions for "others" (i.e. chmod 750
mydir) and in addition _don't_ put that user in the users group, or use ACLs
for more fine grained access control (see man getfacl, man setfacl).
