While I get the appeal of having this and how it's in line with letting
users have just what they want on their systems, I'm going to note that the
flip side is that it's not generally sticking with installing upstream
defaults.  Back when I used KDE it used to really annoy me the way distros
would break up and repackage all the stuff because it made it hard to get
the same thing I'd have gotten from regular tarballs, and the differences
shifted and reliability between versions, etc.

I haven't used KDE in years so I'm not sure how relevant that is to the
current topic, but it's something to keep in mind.
