kdcop lets power users explore enough to create nice stuff like the
googleclip thing from a couple of days ago.
kdesdk usually has a dependency on a real development environment, which
those power users don't really need.

It's 100K here, let's say 200K with docs? 70K gzipped? In a 9MB package? ;-)
