Well it seems that nobody cares enough to do that work. So either it
is not that important for the other desktop environments (user prefer
to do do the configuration using other tools / text editors) or there
is simply no one that cares enough *and* has the ability to step and
do the work.

So if anything this is a manpower problem, not a problem with desktop
integration. Configuration tools that are part of and integrated into
the desktop do offer a better and consistent user experience, so for
desktop that doesn't have their own integrated solution (which they
should have IMO) the solution might be to join forces and try to work
on common tools.
