i don't think we'll end up porting every single application, and certainly 
nothing outside of the main modules that make up the KDE software distribution 
releases, but we'd like to port a good number of them otherwise it's pretty 
well impossible to get good testing of it, don't you think?

beyond that, we also feel, with good justification, that the new system also 
provide a better user experience, so spreading it around isn't a bad thing.
