Would be helpful for potential testers like me if ...

a) there would be a list of directories + files to
backup (or copy to a virtual machine).  This way one could test
several times the migration or roll back is something goes wrong.

Without verifying:

	.local/share/akonadi
	.kde/share/config/*mail*
	.kde/share/apps/kmail
	Mail

More?

b) Describe a save-test prodecure like

	* setup and oneiric installation in a virtual machine
	* create a user with same name
	* rsync above directories + .kde/share/apps/kwallet/kdewallet.kwl
	* shutdown, snapshot disk, boot
	* login and start kmail2

Is there something like that already somewhere?
