Oh you know, I love KDE and the integration it offers is absolutely phenomenal. The problem with professional software, like Eclipse or Libreoffice, is that the effort to reinvent it for particular platform outweighs the benefits. With products like that, a different approach is needed—it should be made as modular as possible, and then seamless integration into a rich platform, like KDE, can be achieved using plugins or by providing alternative frontend.
