Or, alternatively, could we see a Ximian KDE? 

I really hope that SUSE doesn't ditch KDE, I really prefer KDE to
GNOME... it would also be a major pain for SUSE to switch YaST2 and the
other stuff to GNOME. I would like to see Ximian bundled with SUSE,
though. I really like the additions they've made to OpenOffice --
they're mostly cosmetic, but the difference in look and feel with OOo as
done by Ximian are pretty significant.
