Same. Thats what I meant by disliking System Settings: it doesn't _let_ me
do the things I want to do, and KControl does.

I quite like the idea of the layout of System Settings...sort of. Needs a
bit more thought i think. And the search functionality is a gimmick- its
useless. I typed "mouse" on the main "page" and it returned no results.

The thing that worries me is the Appeal project is threatening to gnomify
KControl :'( http://appeal.kde.org/wiki/Control_Center - read Cornelius's
thoughts :(
