Er... yeah, that's pretty well what I was trying to say. Don't get me 
wrong, I'm *110%* in favor of making things easier for the, er, "less 
masochistic" audience ;-), but I happen to be in the "prefers to build 
trunk/kdesupport head" camp. As long people don't start telling me that 
I *can't* do that, I'm happy :-). (Plus, honestly, I can't say I've ever 
been seriously bitten by problems in kdesupport. Sure there's the 
occasional build glitch, but nothing that's come anywhere *near* 
bothering me enough to want to quit building head.)
