Actually it does make perfect sense if you want all the codecs, and insist on using multimedia software that depends on gstreamer's stuff! Odds are you'll need all those codecs if you want a beginner-friendly pointy-clicky multimedia setup anyeay, so just install them already.

That was a good suggestion, and I was able to (kind of) solve the problem. I
now can play MP4, OGV, AVI and WMV files with KDE DragonPlayer without issues,
which is what I wanted to achieve in the first place.
Hilariously, a new issue appeared: VLC player can't play any of the above video
files, it just starts up, shows the first frame of the video and hangs. I have
to kill -9 to get rid of it. Still it's a step forward.
Here's what I did:

# aptitude purge phonon-backend-gstreamer --purge-unused
