allications:/// and applnk-redhat

Hi there!

I am running both KDE and gnome and I wonder about the concept of the
menus in general or how applications:/// (gnome) is connected to
applink-redhat (KDE) There has been a lot of talk about gnome already, I
know how to customize the menus. But still there are some difficulties:

Install mosfed-liquid (theme for KDE), which adds a control center
applet for Look&Feel/liquid. The commandline "kcmshell look&feel/liquid"
from the shortcut does not work, because the shortcut is added to "more
Applications" instead of "Preferences/Look&Feel".

In Gnome I have Sound & Video -> CDplayer, wich opens gnome cd player.
In KDE I have KsCD in the same place, this is exactly, what I want to
achieve: When there is an equivalent for the gnome program, it should be
replaced. Kopete instead of Gaim in KDE, Kmix instead of gmix and so on,
the other should appear as an alternative in "more Applications".
Any ideas?

So ist there a way to edit the menus system wide (all users, both kde
and gnome)?
What process updates /usr/share/applnk-redhat? Any customization of the
directory were gone after a reboot.
