Disturbing or not, it's a welcome change to *me* that kde is now using XDG 
standard locations, see references to XDG_CONFIG_HOME and XDG_DATA_HOME on
http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html

NOTE: you can adjust these environment variables to suit your own needs if 
you prefer something other than their default locations.
