Is there any way to make GTK apps look nicer by default under KDE?

Frankly, I don't think Fedora's KDE spin should incur
the efficiency burden of Qt calling into GTK+ for in-
terface drawing. Add to that that all of the availa-
ble GTK+ style engines (with the possible exception
of QtCurve with a good set of configs, but that also
has a native Qt version) look fairly dated compared
to KDE's Oxygen, so it would be a pulling down of KDE
to Gnome's level, visually.
