Yes, only applicable to GTK+2 apps running under KDE4.
After spending a fair amount of time searching I stumbled upon what I thought would solve
the problem for me. There is a package called kde-gtk-config.
Name : kde-gtk-config
Arch : x86_64
Epoch : 0
Version : 5.3.1
Release : 1.fc22
Size : 643 k
Repo : @System
From repo : updates
Summary : Configure the appearance of
GTK apps in KDE

Description : This is a System Settings configuration module for configuring the
: appearance of GTK apps in KDE.
