We have not settled on the KDE version required for KMM4, and KDE 4.3 is the
one I see as being user-ready. 4.2 was close to that, but still buggy, so
most distributions will go for 4.3 in the short term. Also, the next
releases for Fedora, Kubuntu and Mandriva are just a month or so away, so it
is not such a terrible thing.

So, from my point of view, if it involves too much work to fix it for
pre-4.3 users, leave it that. We are still at the "It will eat your home
pets and run away" stage for KMM4.
