I'm not sure about your last point. I guess there may some people around who 
would like to extend the KDE project to the server. E.g. computer supported 
groupware systems like group editors: those do not need a gui themselves as 
every client got them on their own. But would like to use the infrastructure 
and technology KDE/Qt brings along.
