Idea for alternative Calligra deployment option

A new week, a new idea.
Having seen a novel approach of the sailfishOS SDK using two
virtualboxes (for the toolchain and the simulator) improving
modularity I came to idea of shipping the "always newest stable"
calligra installation on a minimal virtualized linux OS with
autoupdate coming in a matter of hours, not months.

That's an idea for alternative Calligra deployment option for modern
hardware. Calligra is a huge software with numerous dependencies.
We're reaching a catch-22 situation when even the KDE-friendly
opensuse by default ships Calligra 2.4.

Thoughts?
