If I a GNOME user I certainly don't want a whole bunch of KDE packages to have K3b installed. If I just want to burn some files quickly nautilus cd burning is more suitable. For other purposes there are programs like Brasero.
I'm not only giving my own personal opinion, but also of a few other people who switched from windows to linux desktop. And they love k3b more than they did Nero on the "dark" side :)

The GNOME based live images wouldn't have enough space. KDE based live images already have them. If you choose KDE in "Fedora" spin you get k3b by default too.
I installed gnome desktiop from Fedora 7 test 4 dvd, and I feel that from DVD it should be installed by default no matter what DE I choose. Gnome has some programs that KDE doesn't and also is true for the KDE (qt). There is no point sticking to only one platform - the best apps from whole array of linux apps should be presented to new users. Users don't care it it's qt or not.

Merge will get such programs more maintainers hopefully. Rahul
