Right now there is no "Get New Themes" option for

- Widget Style
- Fonts
- Window Decoration
- Cursor Themes

This should be a very simple job since hundreds of themes are available on KDE-look.org and Workspace, Colours, Icons already have this functionality.

I propose this functionality should be added.

Don't forget the mouse cursors.. There are plenty of mouse cursors on KDE-look, but there is nog Get New Themes for that.

This is something that I think would be great if it were in KDE, it would make things a bit more consistant I think.

I don't agree with the new-fonts one. In my opinion our goal should be to ship high-quality and suitable fonts and ensure high standards. So, if there is a option for font-installing at least a (live!-)preview should be available, and it should be checked that there won't be too many/few entrys in the font-list.

I have these concerncs because I dealt with installing fonts quite often and it's really unpleasant to see extra list-entrys for italic/bold styles (redundant!) or not just having the list entrys for the bold types of the font even if the regular are installed as well because of unproper tagging (is it called tagging in fonts? I don't know)
