I don't remember having ever seen really hard deadlines for KDE.  I 
think this is a good thing.  I mean 3.1 hasn't been released yet which 
has allowed more time for improvements.  This is the way it should be.

Unnecessary copying is almost always bad...  Its why people need to 
watch certain things like the use of postfix increment and decrement 
operators for C++ classes as well as try to always pass by constant 
reference unless you really need to make a copy [in which case you can 
make one anyway within the function body if  you really need to right? 
:)]

Anyway... these are good issues to bring to light and why this list 
exists.
