The opposite question (which is more important, according to past experience) is the \
following:  if kdepim-4.1 needs kio_imap improvements, how could it do that, and \
still work with kdebase-runtime-4.0.x (which by that time will be the one available \
everywhere)? This is the issue we had in the past, which led to forking kio_imap - \
surely that can't be a good thing to do again in the future.

A new mailclient based on kio_imap should depend on kdepim-kioslaves (splitted by the \
packagers), I don't see what the problem is.
