Why do we even have separate tracking bugs for subprojects?  If there
were a set of KDE release criteria and the Fedora release criteria
included "The KDE release criteria are met", the current structure would
make sense.  But with a single set of release criteria, I propose that
the subproject tracking bugs should go away and all blockers should be
linked directly to the main tracking bug.  It's easy enough to create
query links for maintainers that will find all the blockers in a
subproject.
