I just did a 'dist upgrade' from Kubuntu Edgy to Feisty using the new upgrade 
tool that people have been asked to test. It took about an hour and a half but 
aside from that everything went ok. I have to use the openchrome drivers for my 
video so had to do
'sudo dpkg-reconfigure  -phigh xserver-xorg'
in recovery mode on my first boot into Feisty in order to select the Vesa 
driver because ' /etc/X11/xorg.conf'  had been written anew and had reverted to 
naming the Vesa generic driver. I expected that would hapen though. Once I had 
managed to log in graphically I reinstalled the Openchrome driver, amended 
xserver-xorg and /etcX11/xorg.conf, restarted X and got back into Kubuntu. 
Nothing seems to have been lost by way of my settings. All of the app windows 
are opening where I had set them to in Edgy, my custom icons are still loaded, 
windows are the same as in Edgy. It looks like all went ok. I can't see any 
missing files in my /home partition.
I am impressed really. This is the first dist-upgrade I have done. I only 
started using Kubuntu about 6 months ago so I am a newb to Linux.
Good stuff.
I am a happy customer.
