A hackish non-right way that would probably work in one direction only
is to chmod u-wrx all your conf files before installing
kubuntu-desktop. I think that should stop whatever program from adding
them. Kubuntu might still add programs to it's menu, but Gnomes should
stay clean.

Check the initial permissions, then after kubuntu is installed chmod
them back to what they were.

There's probably a "right way" to do this too though. :-)
