or create a symlink between ~/.kde and ~/.kde4 to ensure kde4 uses the previous configuration directories of kde..

It's okay to make a symlink if you are definitely migrating to KDE 4 and staying there. But if you are just trying out KDE 4 software while keeping KDE 3 as your main system, keep ~/.kde and ~/.kde4 separate. Otherwise you'll find that the KDE 4 version of an application will probably mess up the configuration for the KDE 3 version. You can move smoothly from KDE 3 to 4, but not back again using the same configuration directory.

"It's okay to make a symlink if you are definitely migrating to KDE 4 and staying there."

IF definitely migrating, huh? But I don't see how it will help, if those people start symlinking from ~/.kde4 to /win/WINNT ;)
