Cherry-picking works quite well, in fact.

But be warned that cherry-picking from Rawhide is COMPLETELY UNSUPPORTED and may break at any moment. For example, if a central library like openssl or openldap gets a soname bump, everything will get rebuilt against it, and then the new KDE will drag in the new library, which will replace the old version, and the removal of the old version of the library will drag in all the other rebuilds. Moreover, there's no way we can test all arbitrary combinations of Rawhide and F9 packages. Rawhide packages are set up to work well with other Rawhide packages, not necessarily F9 ones.

Building it yourself has better prospects. Not necessarily good prospects, just better.
