Do you know of any such application?
If yes, why can't it simply have koffice as a (compile-time) dependency?

Well they are all in koffice :-)
By your logic, all kdepim libs would fit into kdelibs, all kdegame libs too, etc. etc.
Honestly I don't think koffice-libs belongs to kdelibs. Just the development cycle
would be very hard BTW (if koffice wants to keep its "latest stable kdelibs release"
version requirement - it seems we'd lose developers, of which we have very few
already, by requiring CVS HEAD of kdelibs).
