Look my previous mail. if libkipi is moved in KDE4, it will be ported to Qt4. 
Only gwenview will use it until all others host will be ported to Qt4...

This sound like a fork of libkipi dedicaced to gwenview. 

In fact, I'm not favorable to do it.

Of course libkipi + kipi-plugins + all hosts need to be ported to Qt 4.0... 
but take a care. It's not a simple port. Regression tests need to be done. 
It's a huge work to do...

To have already discuted with Jesper by IRC about host application QT 3.0 -> 
4.0 port, sound like a critic task. Porting an huge application like 
kphotoalbum or digiKam+DigikamImagePlugins will take a while...
