Glad to hear some good news.

In fact the modified file is not useful under kde4. The only remaining things in 
it are:
- Rounded corner for different elements. Default KDE4 theme already use rounded 
elements
- To pictures. Even without the file, the pictures are used in the interface.
- some margin adjustment. I don't get this. for me the application is just fine 
without them (keep it simple as they say)
- Various border color forced to gray. I think this is a bad thing. Sooner or 
later you will get a bugreport "with my new custom cool grey theme, I cannot 
see borders anymore"
- QHeaderView::section in white on black. This modify the look of 
configuration. I don't care of that point both are ok for me.

In a general way, I don't like too much custom theme in applications:
- to avoid this kind of bug, if you start to theme, you have to theme every 
single color in the application. Usualy system theme contain dozens of colors. 
If you want your application to display correctly on every single system in 
the world, your theme will end as big as the bible :)
- even if you manage to get a cool working theme, think about other 
applications. If I choose my system theme to be yellow and red, I don't want 
qutecom config in black and white.

As you say a config switch to use custom/system theme would be cool. (of course 
default to system to avoid problems)
