It's something we added for KDE 4.0. The big change is that the global 
shortcuts, instead of being stored in a per-application configuration, are 
now stored globally and handled by a single process.

That allows us to:
 - detect conflicts when two applications want to have the same shortcut
 - remember that an application bound to that shortcut even if it's not 
running
 - list all global shortcuts (useful for learning)
