The difference is that while GNOME intentionally removed options, KDE 4's 
panel is less flexible than Kicker from KDE 3 because the entire thing had to 
be ripped out and rewritten.  Fortunately, the new desktop+panel is developing 
quite rapidly, so it won't be long until the Plasma panels are as good as or 
better then Kicker.
