Yeah, I've seen mixed outcomes when doing that. I was probably lucky.

What I really did was:

1) save the "vanilla" .kde directory that was created when kde4 first started 
up, to have a safe rollback in case something goes wrong

2) cp -a the .kde3.5 dir to .kde4, as said

3) check that things were mostly correct, and if not rollback to the saved 
.kde dir I created in step 1

Turned out everything worked fine (or at least everything I've seen so far), 
so I didn't need to rollback, but probably, as they say, YMMV.
