What do you mean by "non-SVN apps"? If we move it to kdelibs it will be 
equally accessible as kdefx. Do you mean non-KDE apps should be able to 
use it?

Sounds like static is the way to go, that way we can simply yank it and 
BC won't be affected (but for 4.1 apps will have to either move to 
Quasar or make a conscious choice to import Blitz). It will slow down 
4.1 a little but in the long run seems like the better choice.
