No, since there's no such thing as "KDE" (unless you really mean the
community). Its also not a requirement for kdelibs at this point afaik,
but it is a requirement for kdepimlibs and the rest of the stack.

I agree with that though, possibly wait even longer than that, since
distro release cycle may make it necessary to wait up to 6 months before
people get to a 2.8.7 cmake release.
