If they're handled differently in KDE, then they shouldn't be. Hotkeys 
are exposed via the kernel input layer and also via dbus messages from 
HAL. That's entirely independent of whether the system is running 
Kubuntu or Ubuntu.

SD card support is, again, entirely independent of the desktop 
environment used. I have a mild preference to things being tested under 
Ubuntu because that's what I use (and I don't have the hard drive space 
to have kubuntu-desktop installed as well), but it really doesn't matter 
which one it's tested under.
