No important reason. I just noted that recent patches used KDEHW and that 
Phonon changed away from KDEMM.

I think Plasma is a bit different anyway, as it is not only a framework but 
also a set of applications. Phonon and Solid are AFAIK just 
framework/library.

I am not even sure that there is a namespace policy for KDE4 at all, e.g. if 
every namespace will be part of a all-KDE "KDE::" namespace.

Cheers,
Kevin
