I guess option 3 could work. I think it's intended that the lib* can easily be 
packaged and distributed separately, for use with the e.g. NM plasmoid, 
instead of the monolithic systray applet (knetworkmanager). Maybe the kcm* 
should be in the same POT as lib*.

I too prefer fewer, larger POs, but like Chusslove said earlier in the thread, 
it all depends on how exactly it's intended to be distributed.
