Hi everyone,

After something got messed up, it would be nice to have some sort of a button
that can reset all things closely related to KDE. It is sometimes really
difficult to figure out what files should be deleted and I also don't want to
delete my entire home directory, because there might be a lot of data, that I
want to keep. Because I don't know what to delete and there is no automated
way. I consider this a bug. 

Some of these things would be for example:

* plasma-desktop configuration
* kontact and PIM suite configuration
* akonadi
* baloo
* dolphin

>From what I understand the configuration exists in several different folders
and
files

doing:

cd ~
find . -name "*kde*"

gives for example
mainly the folders:

~/config
~/kde
~/local

within those folder there is a lot more than
just KDE things, so I would probably not just delete them...
then there is more stuff such as:

~/.gtkrc-2.0-kde4
~/.cache

maybe even a dialog which would give you the opions
what you would like o reset and what not...
