I guess that it should be added to a wiki page, right ?
How to install a debian package is documented in LOTS of places and there's no
need to specify it for gdebi-kde as it is the same as all other package in
Debian.

Open Konsole (which is the command-line application in KDE) and execute the
following command:
sudo aptitude install gdebi-kde

And while you're at it, install synaptic as well (really try it, it's quite
simple) by executing the following command:
sudo aptitude install synaptic

If you've installed those 2 packages, you won't need to use the command-line
anymore to install other packages.
I think the command-line is extremely powerful and not so hard as people
think, but you don't have to use it in order to use a Debian system, including
installing packages (apart from this one time).

If you want to learn more about debian, I heartly recommend reading the debian
handbook (www.debian-handbook.info).

I do understand your point. I don't think the command line is difficult. I'm on linux and debian for a long time already, I'm not talking about me. I'm talking about the 'average' user. They, on average, will _not_ want to learn command line, or anything else. They don't want customize anything. They just want it to work, by default. And, the point I'm trying to make, is that the default is problematic, and risky, more risky then enabling external package installation by default.
