Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: systemsettings

In KDE4, in systemsettings->appearance one can choose GTK as appearance
style for widgets and controls. By doing this plus setting the correct
colors / icon theme, one can achieve a near to perfect visual
integration of KDE applications into GNOME. This could be automized by
automatically generating the config files in .kde/config based on the
user's settings. Furthermore one could also automatically sync bookmarks
in the open/save dialogs.

As for the implementation, a background service monitoring any changes
to GTK style/appearance would be needed which would update the config
files automatically (what is the best way to monitor changes? Such
events do not appear to be sent on dbus). The service should be able to
revert to the default settings, either when disabled by the user or when
the user has both kde and gnome installed and logs into KDE.

If this idea is something new and is big enough to become a blueprint,
I'll setup a wiki page describing my idea in detail and proceed with the
blueprint.
