It's likely there is a more proper way of doing it, not needing to uninstall, but I just lost my patience at this point.
Maybe still needs the non-GTK versions, a "neutral" one and a kde and a qt5 one, I can't really tell. I was about to uninstall them all, but occurred to me to try to uninstall just the gtk one, and voilá, I had kdialog on chrome-based-browsers again.
Why can't things be set by text files or environment variables with sane standards?...
Before I forget, I want to jot some notes on the screwiest bugs I've seen.
First, openSUSE.
I'm using version 11.4, but it's very likely that some of these misfeatures are still present in 12.1 though the newer kde seems to behave a bit better. Better, at least when JAWS appears. The newer KDE it may self correct better but you may well still see the effect for an instant even so.
After switching to KDE4 I was little confused with its new philosophy of Plasma containers and activities. As it looked interesting, I tried to find more information. Now, there are some nice posts showing how to use it, but I couldn't find the answer for a simple question: where the information about desktop icons is stored on a disk?
Just for the record, in KDE 4.4.5 it is in '~/.kde/share/config/plasma-desktop-appletsrc'
