That has yet to be resolved. Likely another layer which will be released as needed by \
Applications / Plasma which sits in between Frameworks and them will be added I \
suspect. No binary compatibility commitments, same licensing rules as Applications / \
Plasma, just a logically separate product so it doesn't cause dependency problems. I \
don't expect too many libraries or runtime components to end up there (Dr Konqi might \
perhaps?).
