I did that this yesterday.  I found that all the ubuntu and kubuntu
apps ended up in all the menus.  So UNR had all the kubuntu apps and
KNR had the ubunutu apps.  It really wasn't useful.

I had expected that UNR wouldn't show the Kubuntu apps and vice versa.
 As it was, the menues were so full that I decided I really couldn't
live with both installed.  Since mine is a netbook for my whole
family, not just my own toy, I had to take KNR off.  :(
