pop-up the KScreen KCM on top of the fonts KCM.
  
  
  i guess it doesn't have to be removed completely (kcmshell itself is so 
little code that isn't really a big maintainance overhead) one thing that could 
be done probably is just changing krunner to launch systemsettings instead and 
leaving the rest unchanged.
  
  the *really* annoying thing is that every single kcm has a line like
  
    Exec=kcmshell5 kcm_lookandfeel
  
  in its desktop file. Which would call something along the lines of what we 
did for kinfocenter, to still have kcmshell5 as a symlink, but in this case i 
don't think it would cover all cases?
  
  Without kcmshell, that won't work as currently implemented, and it would need 
to navigate you to the KScreen KCM in the same systemsettings instance.

  systemsettings5 --list works ;)
