kdeutis is not mandatory.. you can run KDE without it just fine.

Don't forget about KHotKeys, KHotKeys is certainly *not* a developer app, it's
useable for anyone. And KHotKeys lets you use kdcop to bind a DCOP action
to.

Without kdcop in kdebase, the DCOP functionality in khotkeys would pretty much
need to  be removed, unless you were going to make the user type the DCOP
commands by hand.
