Yes, you're right.
I propose to change the sentence (under DESCRIPTION):
Blackbox supports KDE.
to change to:
Blackbox is already prepared to support the new window manager
specification that is now being developed for both Gnome and KDE.
(or just remove that sentence)
After I got more comments and possible new ideas/corrections I will polish
the manpage, and then announce the `revised' version.
