I don't think the where-do-we-put-the-kwrite-stuff problem is closed on the
kde-core-devel list.
So we can talk with them before we do something.

Perhaps we can come to an agreement to put back most of the kwrite code to
kdelibs.

Perhaps they can understand that we need to be able to change kwrite even
if they decided a freeze.

What can we loose?
If they say "No we won't make an exception for you! Everything will be
freezed next week!", then they cannot tell us not to have our own kwrite
copy to make improvements.
And if they agree to make an exception for us and to put back most of the
kwrite code in kdelibs then everything is fine for us.
