At least in kdemultimedia, wine-lib seems to be required for dvd
support (which is usable within Fedora assuming they are not encrypted
and usable on encrypted dvds with libdvdcss) which is a little more
advanced than phonon can handle (complex and separate videos, menu
navigation etc) and therefore handled separately. I don't know about
kdebase-runtime but i imagine that has it's own independent purpose.
Dragon does seem to use phonon for most of it's stuff though.
