Regarding kmplot, there are issues that block a merge (from my todo):
- fix Open after modifying document
- fix New not finding part
- fix hide status bar (by porting to QStatusBar?)
- fix Qt5 dragging delay
- fix initialGeometrySet in kmplot.cpp
The first two issues are related to KToolInvocation in kmplot.cpp, 
which needs some core developer to understand and fix.

KStars/master is already KF5 based, Kalzium is being worked on by a 
SoC student, no idea about KTouch status.
