OK, so that's what I had in mind. It means the API used by those classes in 
kde4support you're trying to remove is still there for their consumption, so 
why not just let them alone? I don't see the benefit of removing them or 
porting them to something different, it'll just create more build errors to 
code built against kf5, making ports harder.
