This should rougly follow the approach of ubuntu-desktop: applications
which can be considered 'optional' for a KDE desktop and are likely to
be replaced with an alternative by many users should become a
Recommends. Those are still installed by default, but changing a single
application won't break updates any more.
E. g. in Ubuntu we did this for evolution and firefox because many
people prefer thunderbird and epiphany. We also did it for network-
manager, since it breaks for many users, and they should be able to
uninstall it without much fuss. Other good candidates are CJK fonts,
documentation, etc.
