[SCIM] dramatically improved scim-panel-kde and inter-operatability with scim

[Cougar]

Yes, I think it does not require much work if I
subclass the simply config module already in scim-lib.

However my concern is the configbase API: I do think
it should have a function to retreive all available
settings and their values.
