The problem really isn't so big as it sounds. All that needs to be done is
for some to write a libglade for KDE which generates QT widgets instead of
GTK. Then the SO guys just use .glade files for all their GUI stuff. I know
there are some issues with this, like some widgets that don't exist in
KDE and vice versa, but I believe this can work pretty well.
