So, let's rewind a bit and look at things. The main reason we have a

An restrain that the sub-community's they themselves bestowed upon it.

As far as I know they have been free to decide their own size for quite sometime.

Perhaps the simple thing to do going forward is bump KDE and GNOME to
2GB max sizes,

I would say that would be the wrong approach since as soon as you start limited things to sizes you start compromising the desktop experience you intent for the end user which is one of the underlying cause that has been giving this half finished feeling with our default desktop.

  ostensibly one that's CD sized and one that's
larger-than-CD-sized

It's nonsense to ship two sized images ( as well as having multiple ks files in general for DE's ) for the same desktop environment and we already have sub-communities ( xfce/lxde for example ) which advertise themselves being less resources hungry and smaller ( which would cater to the cd-sized image crowd ).

anyhow, desktop and KDE teams: what do you think of this idea?

There are more desktop environments that we ship in the distribution then KDE and Gnome and more likely that more will be packaged then not.
