looking at BGO I somehow don't feel too encouraged to go fully ~arch ;)

http://bugs.gentoo.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=3.5.10

most of bugs listed above suggest that things break when moving in 3.5.10 
direction. I'm not really prepeared to part with 1 stable platform in favor 
of using 2 unstable ones ;)

I'll have to live with workarounds for a while I think, since I really depend 
on 3.5.x (i.e. fully functional KDE) and 4.1.3 is more of sneak-peek and an 
attempt to adjust/get used to the "new way" ahead of time :)

Another silly question that bothers me now: KDE3 menu displayes "double" 
entires for most KDE applications whereas KDE4 doesn't. Did anybody try to 
solve this one (even as a workaround)? This behavior was there ever since I 
first tried KDE-4.0.x.
