As David said, the feedback on Slashdot and Reddit is *always* negative and 
mostly unconstructive at all. I would not worry about that too much.

The problem (as someone who does user support) is that you will not expect a 
homogeneous KF5-based environment with the PN release: in fact most people 
(the ones that will use PN) will use a mixture of 4.x apps and KF5 stuff. 
Therefore this should be considered IMO very carefully or the visual 
inconsistencies that may arise will feel like a double punch in the eyes.

Notice that I'm not criticizing the design at all, I *like* it, it's just a 
matter of consistency. The more PN releases come out and the more apps that 
get ported to KF5, the less serious this problem will become.
