When KDE 4.0 was first released, it was met with quite some criticism. Even though people saw the huge potential, the lack of functionality and stability, as well as quite a few bugs detracted from the experience. The KDE developers continued to work on implementing their relatively radical vision, and with the release of KDE 4.2 creeping ever closer, it seems they're well on their way.

I never was able to find any way of getting them in Mandriva's edition of KDE 4.1.3, which for me is a show-stopper.
This is the first time I've not been able to get application menus by clicking in the root window since at least OL(V)WM on SPARC2's back in the early Nineties. KDE3 had the best scheme I had found in more than fifteen years, and then they seem to be gone entirely in 4.1.
What gives?
Your desired feature doesn't seem to be in the planning for KDE 4.2
http://techbase.kde.org/Schedules/KDE4/4.2_Feature_Plan
Since we are now at schedule point:
# 1.13 January 13th, 2009: Release KDE 4.2 RC 1
http://techbase.kde.org/Schedules/KDE4/4.2_Release_Schedule
it doesn't appear as though your requirement is planned.
Did you submit a request for it to the KDE project at any point?
