Like they don't have anything else to do.
Just like we need to work harder and fix bugs in Amarok 1.4...

This doesn't have much to do with upstream/downstream separation. They
would be just as pissed if you did that and they were downstream like

are going to be a big user group (The biggest?). We can't pull stuff
like this any longer and make it hard for the kde-on-windows folks!
