Just to clear up possible confusion. Most any X11 app will
basically work with most any X11 window manager. Having the
app be part of the same toolkit as the desktop supports extra
levels of static and dynamic configuration. So if mozilla
is running on a kde desktop, and the you reconfigure the window
decoration, the outer window decoration will be automatically
updated by the window manager kwin since this is drawn by kwin.
But if you change kde settings for application fonts, the fonts within
mozilla itself will not change since they are managed by mozilla which
is not paying attention to the kde protocols.
