Apparently we differ on this one. If KDE doesn't (wouldn't) enforce
consistency in this regard, I think, packagers should. As it is,
KDE-based CD burning programs all seems to go in Multimedia. Other
packages provided by Debian seem to differ.

Um, you have it the wrong way around. I'm suggesting
"Requires root privileges" => "Belongs in System menu".

That's where I was looking. And that's where CDBakeOven's entry is, too.
In my opinion, though, *setup* programs don't belong there. I for one
want them hidden away. I think it's questionable, whether K3b Setup
should have a menu entry at all.
