I wondered about that myself, as I needed to set MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME so I
could use browser links in programs. (self compiled mozilla, - its
fine in the official deb)
I'm not sure of the conventional way to do it (~/.bashrc and
/etc/profile didn't work) but I eventually put it in the startkde
script and it works fine like that.
all the best,
