activeBlend and inactiveBlend aren't actually used by Breeze. I'm pretty sure
they're a leftover from the days when KDE's titlebars had horizontal gradients
like Windows 98. I'm not sure if anything actually uses them anymore, but they
don't hurt and so they were never removed.

Color schemes are kept in the standard XDG locations for shared resources.
~/.kde only exists for KDE4 compatibility and should be ignored.
