Can you explain why is it necessary and useful and what do we
(packagers, or users) gain from it?
Size of the libKF5IMAP5 rpm is 172kb(+375 KB for devel package).
IMO users wouldn't object installing 172kb more monthly at the sake of
consistency
(they are already confused enough by KF5/Plasma/Apps + kdelibs4-based
libs/desktop/apps splits and versionings)

I understand that you as a maintainer would like to have the right to
determine your version numbers, but i don't understand then why is it
necessary for that lib to be a part of KF5.

Cheers,
Hrvoje
