Absolute and we even have to and iirc also did thank e.g. Suse for they extra 
work done on e.g. 4.0 (in an own extra branch btw which was then picked up by 
other distributors cause it did just provide a better user-experience then 
vanilla did).

Quote;
"what any distro out there shows you as KDE4 desktop is what they want it to 
look like, not what the KDE devs/artists/whoever decided to be the default."

I couldn't agree more. There are just different target-groups out there and 
different distributors may ship with different defaults to make *there* 
userbase (e.g. KDE3=>KDE4 adopters, Windows=>KDE4 adopters, Mac=>KDE4 
adopters, coperate desktop, working station, kiosk-system, etc.) happy by 
going with other defaults, themes, wallpapers, colors, launchers, applets, 
applications, whatever for them.
