You will need a release coordinator for that as well! Plus you need a lot of 
#ifdefs in your code if you don't plan to develop agains the latest _released_
kdelibs.

For something as small as kate (sorry...) I'm not sure its worth it, but if
somebody steps up as a release coordinator and the issues are clear on always
releasing against an 'old' kdelibs you won't hear problems from me.

The kdelibs version will stay I presume.
