That would make glib a mandatory dependency for KDE in all KDE platforms, 
while right now it isn't so. (Yes, I know about shared-mime-data, but 
that's an external program that can be statically linked or duplicated)

And I repeat: it can be turned off at runtime. You can't rely on it being 
there at all, unless you built your Qt.

That would make a fully-functional KDE-based browser dependent on gtk. 
It's out of the question.
