Because some apps do not have a fully functional KDE equivalent.  Firefox and 
OpenOffice come to mind.*  While the core KDE team may have no interest in 
this, there is usually someone with development talent who does.  That is the 
nice thing about global open source.  Someone already has done some of this 
in a package, the name of which escapes me at this point.


*Yeah, I know there is konqueror and koffice, but there are plenty of web 
sites that konqueror does not work well with, and koffice, while admirable is 
not adequate in a heterogeneous office environment.
