Yes, and... ?
What do you mean by "margins"? This report is pretty vague.

Maybe the name of the feature isn't 100% correct, but this is the intended effect.
The goal is that you can read the text whichever background picture you use,
so that's why the 'shadow' (the dark outline) must be all around the letters,
not just like a bottom-right shadow.
it would be nice to have a real shadow so maybe you could change the name to 'enable margin' and add a feature with a real drop shadow. > it would be nice to have a real shadow
you can, just no way to do it through UI
in your kdesktoprc:
[FMSettings]
ShadowConfigName=OS X
ShadowCurrentScheme=0,1,16.0,192.0,2,4,0
ShadowEnabled=true

This is the way shadows look like when the sun comes from above.
So close the bug report.
Greetings, Stephan
we could put that in the kdesktop docu I guess Subject: kdebase/kdesktop CVS commit by faure: There seems to be an agreement that the shadows should look more like shadows (bottom-right instead of "sun above"). This makes the text easier to read e.g. when selecting icons.
