IMHO when a config setting is not handled properly on upgrade of KDE its a 
bug.

I migrated configuration from KDE 3.5.10 and just pressed on "Reset to 
defaults" for quite some appearance related settings in order to switch 
them to Oxygen. There have been issues, but I mostly didn't file them as 
bugs.

Only one I triaged and filed: The separator "58" for colon for web 
shortcuts in kuriikwsrc or something like that it was is not recognized by 
KRunner, only by Konqueror. ":" instead works with both. Unfortunately 
Konqueror saved it as "58" not as ":".

Anyway I suggest to file those issues as concrete as possible as bugs as 
you manage to take time for it.

What a clever idea--security by obscurity, by setting your clock 8 years off...

I was gonna say, I'm pretty sure KDE 4 was EOL'd several years ago when Plasma 
5 and everything came out.

Ahh, ok, thanks for the (partial) explanation / clarification (and for 
confirming I'm not the only one seeing these).

Still, it might be a clever idea (no, I'm kidding) ;-)
