You've always been able to pick and choose individual KDE applications
without installing all of KDE, although in KDE 4 we did recommend also
installing one of the smaller meta packages (eg.
kde-apps/kdebase-runtime-meta) to ensure everything worked correctly.

You can identify KF5/Qt5-based applications based on their slot.
Something like eix kde-apps/ --slot 5 should give the full list of
what's available so far.
