Everything IMHO and provided that there's no other KDE tool that outperfoms
the corresponding kipi-plugin ;)

candidates for default could be

	slideshow sendimages
	printwizard (provided that it's much improved)

good candidates for optional

	mpegencoder simpleviewerexport (non funtional without non-free stuff)
	ipodexport
	wallpaper

In general when in doubt -> optional ;)

Space on the Kubuntu CDROM is rare, so I doubt that something like
this will happen without users complaining much louder.


Personally, the only thing I really miss in the default install is a good
sexy slideshow tool (with audio support).
