Whether or not the socket permissions and ownership are really a problem
depends on your point of view. Most folks consider it to be just fine
the way it is but as always, further investigation might prove
otherwise. X11 has it's own permissions system and my understanding of
it is negligible.

This is a problem, well, at least it is according to my personal point
of view. ;-)

Have you isolated the code causing this behavior?

I'm not really a KDE user. Heck, I even resist installing X11 whenever
possible.
