Agreed, I did the same, and other than a bunch of application specific
windowing parameters, I didn't see much.

What was odd was under the plasmascreenrc was the [ScreenConnectors] portion,
that wasn't present under the last, but didn't seem suspect otherwise, just
don't know what those definitions were used by or for.  This laptop is only
about 6mo old, I doubt it began with too old of plasma to pick up too much
cruft along the way.

I think some of it is the collection too of all the various "what if's" that
collect over time, such my plethora of kscreen variations in that folder that
likely I would venture conflict with one another.  Now that I understand from
your guidance more about how kde stores display params, I can diagnose this
more, otherwise I know at least to purge those settings.

Now my next biggest challenge is why the kwin script for restoreToScreen never
works for restoring window placements working randomly, less often than more.  
With 4 displays, it's maddening when my dock glitches, and moves ALL my 50-some
windows away from my 3x 50" TV's to my 15" laptop screen, forcing me to
manually move stuff around back where I want them.  KDE really should handle
this natively better than a script plugin.

Thanks again Nate and David!
