I don't know. I just use KDE as I always have. That said, I primarily
browse with Iceweasel and that is about all I use this kaptop for
except reading usenet with Pan. Once in a great while I'll fire up
Konqueror but I do keep a Konsole open with three tabs. I even launch
Xscreensaver instead of using the KDE one.

Other than Kwin, I'm probably not actually touching KDE all that much.
The reason I started using it full time was its integration with
hotplug devices such as insertion of a USB pen which wasn't handled at
all by IceWM at the time.
One thing I did was move my ~/.kde directory out of the way after it
seemed Kaboom did nothing useful for me and reset my few
customizations.
