Additionally, the concept of the Extra Gear excludes libraries by intention so 
no inter-module dependencies can occur.[1]

[1] Yes, yes I know, the bluetooth framework does not exactly obey to this 
restriction, but they do include applications and use KDE technologies 
heavily and do not provide a library but a metaserver, a kcm module and 
an kioslave additionally to some apps. And they had good arguments that they 
really should go into the Extra Gear "as one", at least for now ;-)
