Yeah, well, we asked for subtasks shortly before the woody release, but as
nobody worked on it then, it never happened. I really don't have time for this
right now, but still, i believe that splitting the gnome and kde tasks could
hurt no one, especially from a plain newbie perspective, the tasks are already
cluttered by a bunch of strange looking and not-all-that comprehensible server
tasks.

most users.
