Hi!

Why is `konqueror`, `kwrite` and `keditbookmarks` part of the metapackage 
`kde-baseapps`? This seems to be packages that nobody needs or uses, but is 
part of all predefined metapackages (by being part of `kde-baseapps`).

When someone is installing `kde-plasma-desktop` or `kde-standard` they want a 
minimal desktop environment that they can shape to their liking. Bundling quite 
big applications that nobody uses doesn't seems to align with these 
metapackages purpose. Everyone -- or almost everyone -- uses Firefox instead of 
Konqueror; Nano or Vim is used instead of KWrite when you need a minimal text 
editor; and KEditBookmarks seems to be related to Konqueror.

I guess that there's some reason that I've missed. Could you please enlighten 
me and explain? If there isn't really any reason why we bundle them with the 
metapackage, can we begin to discuss the possibility to remove them from 
`kde-baseapps`?

Have a nice time!

Regards,
Albin
