Does any mainstream distro still ship any KDE3 stuff? Does any mainstream 
distro still ship any KDE4 stuff? (FWIW, I've just added deprecation notices 
to all the KDE4 packages on FreeBSD, thinking we were the last to get rid of 
it).

Sure, I'd be up for that -- I see Cornelius is, too. We could try wrangling 
the frameworks in, as well as updating KDE4 bits if needed; 17.08.3 was the 
very last update of that stack, we could check if it's in the LSD.
