I have no decision power, but I think the odds of a freeze exception
this late are near to zero, even more for such "standalone" things
(it's not to be included in a core library, it's something one can
install by hand).
The author should make a release at kde-apps.org and people needing it
can download and install it quite easily.
You can even ask your distribution to package it.
