So, if a kind of migration of vocabulary files could take place form files.kde.org to KDE Store, it would be nice. Nevertheless, in case that the multiple providers approach is what we need, may you direct me to how such a solution could be implemented? I have looked into the documentation as well as into other implementations and I did not find a straightforward solution in order to combine these providers.

This set of vocabularies is retrieved from https://files.kde.org/edu/kvtml/. Nevertheless, in KDE Store, a new location/category has been introduced in terms of Parley vocabulary files. Changing parley.knsrc configuration file using the same provider as parley-themes.knsrc (the one responsible for Parley ui themes), vocabulary files are downloaded from the KDE Store repository.
