I don't like it at all personally.  

I think if you're going to use domain.kde.org at all, we should
encourage the use of that address to be the primary one.  Otherwise
there isn't much point because as soon as you go deeper into the site,
you lose the domain.kde.org base part of the URL.

webcvs.kde.org/content/here/ is IMHO a much better URL than
randomdomain/content/here/, same thing for the wiki.

Then the sponsored site should not request domain.kde.org at all.
