That´s one of the not cleared things of my idea. I said that´s just an idea 
that must be make perfect so this is a question that will need to clear.
I don´t know, but I think if people really want to have the bleeding edge 
KDE, they install it from the OBS or the KDE repo.

In this cause, YaST is important. If you install the LTS, you can use the 
"regular" repo too and if you use the regular you can use the LTS too. I 
hope it´s clear.

My third point is following: What´s with Tumbleweed? I think it looks very 
intersting and maybe it can be used with my concept too.

kind regards and a nice day

So you want to force people to update their entire system just to get a
bleeding edge KDE, or kernel or digikam ?

Sounds more like a step backward to me.
