The problem is that, as far as Fedora is concerned, we really need this (and 
the previous 2 patches) in 4.x, not 5.0…

I have imported the backported patches into Fedora Rawhide (which is now at 
4.7.0), but I think it'd really be a pity if Fedora were the only distribution 
to support this in the near future.

Is this really the only kdelibs feature which would have been targeted at 4.8? 
I think we really really need a kdelibs 4.8 release, period. It just doesn't 
make any sense whatsoever to let the libraries rot while the rest of KDE's 
software gets released.
