KDE builds on Qt. KDE is Qt plus a bunch o'stuff, but you can still write standalone Qt applications. GNOME builds on GTK. GNOME is GTK plus a bunch o'stuff, but you can still write standalone GTK applications. When YaST2 was designed, SUSE favoured KDE, so standalone Qt was the choice for a GUI-independent GUI frontend to YaST2. On the KDE side we show the YaST2 modules in the (freedesktop.org) standard menu structure, and used to show them in Control Centre as well. Personally, I hope we will be able to get them back in KDE4's System Settings.
