I agree with the latter and actually thought the new theme manager would be 
supporting this. On the other hand,  it wouldn't be a bad idea to include the 
most popular (new) iconsets and themes by default. A poll on KDE-look could 
be used to find out which to include.

Does anybody know whether there are plans to do something similar into KDE for 
e.g. http://www.kde.org and http://kde-apps.org to show (or even) download 
KDE and KDE-applications? Up to now I have seen kpackage's option for 
external sources and a search menu for rpms on kde-apps. I understand that 
depending on their distro people use YasT, apt, yum, emerge, etc. for 
updating applications. 

Why not offer the possibility to search/explore new KDE applications and 
download them to a local folder for installation. They should, however, be 
made aware of the fact that this can damage their system ;).

Best regards,

Claire
