Eh, we do the same (bit-perfect tarball copies) with many other apps
and frameworks anyway...

Oh, maybe I was under a wrong impression by our past discussion. As there 
haven't been code commits in many many years for any of them, the question was 
rather why keep releasing near bit-perfect copies of tarballs 12 times a year. 
The requirement for dropping them from Applications releases was to first get 
them converted to git, so that they _can_ be easily picked up again. A 
kdewebdev package from 2010 works the same as one from 2016, and no one is 
forced to drop it from their package repository.

At least klinkstatus still depends on kdepimlibs-4, which was last released 2 
years ago and conflicts with GpgME++ requirements of other applications since 
16.12.

kfilereplace, if kept, may as well be moved to a different category - it seems 
to be in kdewebdev rather for historical reasons.

That would leave kimagemapeditor as the only application in kdewebdev.

Now we are almost there and similar to kommander, the remains of kdewebdev 
have not seen any new code or frameworks branch since they were moved to git:

kfilereplace
kimagemapeditor
klinkstatus
