Also it's always nice to avoid breaking API if you don't have to.
  
  
  Not entirely sure we can do that, the old KNewStuff widgets are quite tightly 
bound to the widget world... It might be possible with a touch of heavy duty 
header wrangling (keeping it abi compatible would be a fair bit of work, though 
not impossible). At the very least, though, i'd like to perhaps do that as a 
sort of... second step after these components have been created. In short: 
Doable, but quite possibly more work than it'd be worth (when compared to 
straight up deprecation-and-porting-guide).
