There is no easy way to do this. The best you can do is amend the root
user's menu, and then copy that to the global menu file. However, as
soon as individual users start modifying their menus, they are stuck
with their settings, and nothing you do with the global file will have
any effect. It's crap design...

I'm not sure whether you may be able to edit the root user's menu, which
will be reflected in a *virgin* user's menu.

Try http://humanreadable.nfshost.com/howtos/kde-menus.htm, for some hints.
