As you want. You're raising the bar for new contributors, who can't work on your code using the latest KDE Frameworks release.

You and me might compile everything, but you'll get more contributors if you let people work on workspace and apps using a released frameworks (for which there are distro packages) than if you require them to compile frameworks first. Just like we don't require Qt from git, we shouldn't require KF5 from git, I thought this was the general agreement.

If you're worried about the ifdef, just use the two liner version of the code forever, I was always a bit dubious about adding a method just for that anyway.
