Not integrated in System Settings. Not checking conflicts with KDE
shortcuts. Etc. How will Clementine handle the likely merger of tray
icon and taskbar entry in 4.8, considering Clementine does not use
KStatusNotifierItem? Not at all? Ah, great! So much for badly
integrated
apps...

Is there not time to fix it? And you can set it to use system desktop
notifications.

I think the openSUSE-KDE folks have enough on their plates without
having to make major changes to a core piece of software.  There are
much more important tasks right now.
Nonsense, Amarok is _not_ a core piece. It's not even part of KDE, it's only
using kdelibs. Making Clementine default needs ZERO involvement of our 'KDE
folks' (it's only catman anyway). It's only about removing Amarok from the
KDE-Multimedia pattern and adding Clemetine instead:

       --- a/data/KDE4-Multimedia
       +++ b/data/KDE4-Multimedia
       @@ -3,7 +3,7 @@ patterns-openSUSE-kde4_multimedia
        -Prq:

        +Prc:
       -amarok
       +clementine
        k3b
        kmix
        kscd

The only thing needed is a community descision and that should happen here.

I think you should read the post I was replying to. It was suggesting
fixing problems with Clementine. I was replying to that and saying
that fixing those problems is infeasible.

Whether it is a core piece of upstream KDE is irrelevant, the default
media player is a core piece of a distribution.
