Their proposal to have the -x11 packages in a specific COPR repository, which wouldn't be official, would avoid that extra work, which was one of the reason because they decided to drop X11.
The COPR solution seems better for me for both parties: kde-sig folks wouldn't have to bother with X11 anymore, while -x11 maintainers could avoid unexpected breakage by bumping Epoch of the package in COPR and rebuild the full KDE Plasma stack there. However, if the breakage could happen only one way, e.g. a KDE Plasma update will possibly break -x11 packages, but no -x11 package could break the "official" Wayland implementation, I'm for allowing the -x11 packages in the main repos. I see no other reason why FESCO should block -x11 packages in the main repo, if a software is under an allowed license and doesn't harm the main system we should not refuse its packaging.
