So what happens when I "emerge kde"?  I'm mostly asking for the LiveCD
of the future.  I doubt we'll see this go stable by 2005.0, but 2005.1
will definitely face it.  Will it install all of KDE?  Will it install
only the required parts?  Basically, I guess I want to know what changes
are in store for the kde meta-package.
