C'est vraiment galere... j'ai essaye quelque trucs mais ca n'a rien donne. Il 
faut savoir que certaines options ne sont pas passes au WM, ou que le WM peut 
decider de na pas honorer certaines requetes... Bref, il se peut aussi que 
les widgets Qt hierarchisent les "ressources" et que le controle de la 
decoration ne soit possible qu'avec certains widgets (du 
style 'transient/dialog' par exemple). Je ne me suis pas penche sur le 
probleme... Il faudrait voir si des librairies/modules Python/Perl permettent 
de creer des fenetres sans decoration avec des options.

Voici ce que j'ai trouve comme doc... (mais ce n'est pas ce que l'on cherche a 
faire)

Window Decorations

You can change the appearance of window borders, titlebars and buttons in KDE 
using window decorations. Some window decorations even have the capability to 
apply effects such as translucency. Window decorations must be able to do all 
these without sacrificing speed and performance. This is the reason why 
window decorations come in source code that must be compiled, or as binary 
packages that must be installed. Basically, Window decorations are plugins or 
small programs that instruct KWin, KDE's Window Manager, how to display 
window frames.

In order to add a new window decoration, you need to compile it from source 
code. If a binary package for your distribution or system is provided, you 
simply need to install it using your distribution's package manager. Please 
refer to your distribution's manual for instructions on how to do this. Once 
the window decoration has been installed, it can be accessed in the Window 
Decorations settings in the KDE Control Center. In the Window Decoration tab, 
a list of installed window decorations can be seen in the drop down box. 
Simply select the decoration you want to use and click on Apply. Different 
window decorations have different capabilities and settings. Play around with 
the different options available. The Buttons tab allows you to control the 
buttons on the window titlebar. Enable the Use custom titlebar button 
positions check box in order to rearrange, remove, or add buttons. To add 
buttons to the titlebar, drag an item from the list to the titlebar preview 
above it. To remove a button, drag the button from the titlebar preview to 
the item list. Simply drag buttons in the titlebar preview to rearrange them.
While all window decorations need to be compiled from source code, some window 
decorations can load pixmap-based theme files that do not need to be 
compiled. KDE ships with a pixmap-based window decoration called the IceWM 
window decoration. Another pixmap-based window decoration is deKorator, which 
can be found on KDE-Look.org. Please refer to your distribution's 
documentation on how to install these. The advantage of using pixmap-based 
window decorations is it is relatively easy to make themes for them, by using 
images and editing a configuration file. The tradeoff is a bit of 
performance, while this may be unnoticeable on very fast systems.

To add an IceWM theme, select IceWM as the window decoration and click on the 
Open KDE's IceWM theme folder link in the window decoration description area. 
This will open a Konqueror window to $KDEHOME/share/apps/kwin/icewm-themes. 
Extract your IceWM theme to this folder. The theme will then be added to the 
list of IceWM themes. Select the theme you want to use and click on Apply.
To add a deKorator theme after you've installed deKorator, select deKorator 
from the window decorations list and go to the Themes tab. Click on Install 
New Theme and locate your deKorator theme archive. Make sure that the version 
of the deKorator theme matches the deKorator version installed on your 
system. Once the theme has been added, select the theme you want to use and 
click on Set Theme Paths. Click on Apply for the changes to take effect.
Some more window decorations are available at KDE-Look.org under the Native 
KDE 3.x and the Native KDE 3.2+ subsections. Themes for the IceWM and 
deKorator window decorations have their own subsections under the Window 
Decorations category.
