This is the first time I heard that the platform plugins should be 
packaged separately. Is this documented so packagers actually know it 
that this is what we want? Is this what we want? I actually thought 
that kdevplatform is there as it is just because everything inside 
there is useful - to not say mandatory - for every application using 
the platform interface and libraries. So it actually makes sense to 
provide one package as it is.
