So from the thread on devel@, it seems KDE is going to have issues
with libinput in the F22 timeframe.  While GNOME is the base DE for
Workstation, KDE was supposed to be a focus area for Workstation with
this release.  We have the qt theme under review already, etc.

How does this all play out?  Aren't we going to face the same problems
here that the KDE spin does?
