an interesting idea, but the configuration values should not appear in the 
metadata.desktop file. it not only bloats up the # of keys we have, it doesn't 
scale to plasmoids with more/different configuration.

i think this would make more sense as a .desktop + a KConfigGroup (could even 
be in the same file?) that holds the complete default configuration that is 
then copied over after the applet is created.
