Help us with curating store.kde.org

[Dan Leinir Turthra Jensen]

It will be, yes. Initially we can simply mark it to not show up on Plasma 
clients (that is what the two patches linked from the task here are about: 
https://phabricator.kde.org/T6133 ). Later we will be able to add dependency 
and version information, but for now we can simply mark the things that are 
not useable from the Get New X dialogues. Indeed, that is an important part of 
the curating process: The data will still be visible on the website, but with 
those patches we become able to hide things that don't make sense in e.g. 
Plasma :)
