Multi-arch is in general not something upstream supports; we have some changes mostly related to cross-building, but otherwise anything beyond that is mostly "nice to have". Some of the KDE Frameworks (such as kio) also have runtime components/daemons that can spawn D-Bus services and/or load plugins. This makes the scenario you described above as hard to do, and (personally speaking) not something to invest into unless there is a strong demand for it. Hence, I'm lowering the severity of this to wishlist. -- Pino Toscano
