The problem isn't with the per se, but with the fact that for however close 
KDE is to the Qt upstream, we don't *control* those classes. The Qt Project's 
committers would still be free to reject a change required by KDE (and the 
long-time existence of KDE patches against qt-copy and Qt in gitorious was 
testament to that).
