Summary: Provide a mechanism to return the keys in a group via
the KWrite- and KReadConfig binaries.
Classification: Frameworks and Libraries
Product: frameworks-kconfig
Version: 6.9.0
Platform: Fedora RPMs

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
-------
KDE's CLI configuration acquisition and application tools (`kreadconfig6` and
`kwriteconfig6` respectively) are unable to return valid keys via the CLI when
a group is specified without a key.
For comparison, GNOME >30 provides this functionality via `dconf`.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
------------------
Invoke `kreadconfig6 --file kdeglobals --group KDE`.
OBSERVED RESULT
---------------
When a value is not specified, the help documentation is returned.
EXPECTED RESULT
---------------
When a value is not specified, the available values should be returned.
