Not true. The settings you apply there do NOT control what happens in KDE 
apps.

For instance, try setting your "preferred email" client to thunderbird, or 
evolution, and then click on a email link in konqueror - What email program 
comes up ? For me it is kmail, regardless of what you set. 

To me this is obvious, "gnome-default-applications-properties" does NOT 
control KDE (the hint is in the name) which has its own way of setting 
preferred applications (fire up kcontrol then navigate KDE Components -> 
Component Chooser) and thus it should NOT be put on the KDE menu to avoid 
confusion.

just my 1 pence  (roughly 2 cents)
