Thanks for providing this data, Stephan.  I think it would really help
to move the applications (in fact: completely remove them from FACTORY)
as to reduce duplication and confusion.

I can see why you are saying that.  It's not going to be a sustainable 
approach in the long term, though, and even KDE 4.3 Beta is a significant

(I have been testing different desktop environments in the last couple of 
weeks and will say that all of them have room for improvement from a user
perspective.)
