It seems that the entire set of uploads is a microversion update from
4.0.3 to 4.0.4. Similarly to GNOME microversion updates, you should
consider using SRUs instead. You should do that if

 * The microreleases just fix bugs, and do not introduce new features, change 
strings, etc.
 * You do not want to additionally maintain the 4.0.3 packages (once -proposed 
moves to -updates, this becomes the only supported version)
 * You want people to actually *use* 4.0.4 (few people use backports, 
especially *not* those who use it in more serious environments)

Of course SRUs come with a slightly higher price: The changes must be
documented (relevant part of the upstream changelog), must comply to the
SRU policy, and testing needs to be performed thoroughly and documented
in the bug trail. But you should discuss this in the KDE team and
consider the pros and cons.
