This is, of course, not a problem: No doubt the
developers of KDE also use KDE, so they can see
first-hand how their changes to KDE affect usability. 
It may be a problem for Windows and other proprietary
operating environments (since the developers and users
are two totally separate and unrelated groups), but
with KDE (and other open-source environments), a
better environment is only a few changes of the source
and a recompile away. :-)
