Do you use KDE?
If you don't, would you install KDE to use KDE apps?
..I wouldn't.

GTK is required (unless you want to use Xlib... ugh) to make an X
application; GNOME is bells and whistles in many cases.

I'm all for GNOME, too, but I know that many people won't install it
for the same reason I won't install KDE.  I don't lose anything by
using GTK.
