Here's a clue - KDE is a COMPLETELY separate project from FreeBSD.  Heck
it's separate from Linux too.  

FreeBSD does an operating system - KDE is a window manager w/ lots of
other apps.  

FreeBSD's real interface is in plain ol' text.  What interface you choose
to use on top of X is your choice.  If you don't like KDE use something
else.
