KDAB could have chosen to take the route that the KOffice guys took, i.e. create (fork) their own private version of kdelibs by throwing out everything that they do not need. They did not choose this route. Instead they chose to work directly with upstream. This requires upstream not to block patches for dubious reasons. We don't do so in this case (which is good), but we still try to argue why the patch makes no sense. It makes no sense to us (which is perfectly okay), but apparently it does make sense for KDAB because otherwise they wouldn't have asked.
