i thought about that as well, but assuming kdelibs is the only issue,
i was assuming that the kdelibs releases would always be ahead of the
everything-else releases. in which case there should be no "i have a
feature that requires XYZ from kdelibs", or something. or were you
referring to other areas of the stack? i could see it becoming a
problem if we have some apps with dbus trying to talk with each other
when they're on totally different release schedules. but that's not
too difficult to solve.
