Good, I think both ossi and I feel thats the way to go.

Agreed.

In my exact example-solution the user either includes klocale.h for  
traditional or klocale-plasma.h for his library (plasma in my  
example). Can't get more optional than that ;)
My worry with it is that its confusing to have to include a different  
header in different modules.

It does have the advantage of being really easy to auto test and stay  
consistent.
