[Bug 877428] [NEW] When KWin dies, default fonts are picked up. That should not happen

[udippel]

Public bug reported:

(This is a regression on 11.04)

Whenever KWin dies, when it comes back, the fonts set are some default fonts ('Ubuntu', sizes 8 and 9). Then I need to reset all and everything especially on a high-resolution monitor because the display is ugly. 
This should not happen; when KWin comes back it should always read the last user-defined settings. This is worse, since the System Settings do not apply to the Desktop fonts, except at reboot (877421).
Also, under consideration that the 'arbitrary KWin dies'-bug has been unresolved for some years, this is annoying. Until 11.04  this did not happen here.
