Yes, that's most likely true... thinking of KDE as a "desktop environment" 
which is actually what it is. Also what came to my mind is that kdeextragear 
or something would have been better anyway (to start with at least). But it's 
true that currently it's out of scope of a desktop environment.

Anyway, this system will most likely provide an interface for KDE itself, so 
it would be possible to work on "computers" inside this VR, which would then 
lead to a real 3D desktop environment. But that's still some time away.
