Note however that it's not a proper argument for splitting repos or not since 
nowadays our infrastructure has the concept of grouping independently of the 
repos. So we could split in their own repo and still have a way to make a 
plasma-desktop and a plasma-workspace group.

OTOH Sebas argument is much more compelling.
