If that is all you want, then it would be a good idea. I've used kdialog 
for just a progressbar from a script before.

Maybe something like below, but this acts like a dialog before the main 
application starts up.


import sys
from kdecore import KApplication, KAboutData, KCmdLineArgs
from kdeui import KMainWindow, KMessageBox

about = KAboutData("msgbox", "msgbox", "1")
KCmdLineArgs.init(sys.argv, about)
app = KApplication()
win = KMainWindow()
KMessageBox.information(win, "Hello World")
win.show()
app.exec_loop()
