Hello Carl,

Promotion-wise it makes sense. We always have difficulty explaining and, hence, 
making the general public feel excited about the new versions of Plasma, as 
the concept of "desktop environment" is a concept that escapes (and bores) 
most people. But promoting a bunch of new apps, and a new set of configuration 
tools, and a new wallpaper and widgets is a much easier thing to do.

Also new versions of things like Dolphin and Spectacle, which are closely 
associated with Plasma, are released with Gear, while System Monitor and 
Discover are released with Plasma. This makes zero sense to outsiders.

Tl;DR: Sounds good to me.

Cheers

Paul
