Right. But you seem to forget we have to deal with the current situation. As I understood printing in KDE4 is currently broken (for desktop and 'server-based computing environments'), so if we at least can fix it for desktops, we do a lot better then we do now. 

We lack the knowledge you have on this subject, so unless you are willing to fix things for KDE4, there are not a lot of options to choose from. The deadline is Oct. 3rd.
