Yeah, but it's never really clear which plugins are enabled when you start a new session, and AFAIK it isn't really possible either to unload plugins.
More plugins also means longer build times if they cannot be (de)selected at that level.

Qt Creator has a -noload option to disable loading of specific plugins at startup; I don't KDevelop has something similar, correct?

Ah, indeed. I missed that, but then I've been keeping my KDE4 desktop and kuiviewer4 works just fine as a standalone viewer :)

Can't you create a new, dedicated window and hand that to the KPart?

Yep, and you also cannot cater to everyone...
