In (software) development it seems usually fine to have development branche=
s=20
of separate components depend on each other's latest state. They call it=20
Continuous Integration. One of the purposes is to get early-as-possible=20
feedback, not only post-release when certain things can no longer be change=
d.
In the case of KF libraries that would be e.g. feasibility of new API as we=
ll=20
as the state of the implementation. Which is usually considered a good idea=
,=20
both for the libraries as well as the applications as the consumers of the=
=20
libraries.

It is a bad idea only from the POV of Craft users, as the tool seems not ye=
t=20
capable to deal with development branches of all dependencies?
E.g. kdesrc-build/kde-build though e.g. are capable, so let's hope some Cra=
ft=20
developers/users are inspired to have their tool catch up.

Even more when Craft is thought to also support early testing by users of n=
ew=20
features/implementation (that is why you do packages for app development=20
states here, right?), where development branches of the respective librarie=
s=20
adding to that also want/need to be covered.
