Not really (though I see how you could get that impression). I use some non-KDE 
apps daily, X-Chat for example. (I like its C plugin interface, I have written 
a few script-like plugins in C for X-Chat. Most users will probably be happy 
with Konversation though, if they even use IRC at all.) I doubt the usefulness 
of Firefox in particular (over Konqueror) though (and the usefulness of 
Evolution even more, considering that I never use it whereas I use KMail all 
the time, and that AFAICS it gets more flames than any other application which 
ships with Fedora). Personally, I'd rather have X-Chat available than Firefox 
or Evolution, but that is my very biased personal preference.

As for generally useful non-KDE apps (not just the one I happen to use the 
most ;-) ), I think OO.o and GIMP qualify, but IMHO not Firefox and definitely 
not Evolution. Ekiga might also be interesting, though that probably drags in 
several GNOME libs too.

* I guess that's what you meant because otherwise your sentence makes no 
sense. ;-)
