They shouldn't. This is a Kubuntu wish, not a KDE wish.

This concerns the Kubuntu project, not the KDE project. As Kubuntu has
integration of GTK apps (you can install them from the default repos)
thus the integration lies with them.

I have not noticed the dev-bashing, so I am obviously not
participating in the right threads. I happen to greatly appreciate the
KDE devs and the Kubuntu devs. I have not a bad work for either of
them.
