I just had a look at the usage of KGlobalSettings inside KWin: none of these colors are used - neither in KWin core nor in the window decorations shipped with KWin. KWin reads color values with these names from a config group called "WM" without using KGlobalSettings (see kde- workspace/kwin/libkdecorations/kdecoration_p.cpp line 60ff). But tracing back the argument passed into this method: it always reads the values from kwinrc, never from kdeglobals. In case that had once been supported: it's at least broken since 4.0.
So from my side there is no need to keep any special handling. If we want to make this work again we just need to modify the KCM to change kwin's config file for these colors. Cheers Martin Gräßlin
