I think I read that the graphs are coming back upstream.

I don't expect sni-qt4 and a heavily patched qt to land in debian
anytime soon.

What do you mean by "originally" and "another update" ?

All plasma widgets needs to be updated for plasma5. That's just how it
is. Better tell the upstreams of your favourite 3rd party plasma widgets
that they better get started.
And I'm pretty sure that everything plasma5 haven't landed in unstable
yet, but if the issues you have mentioned are the biggest ones around,
I'm so far pretty happy about the state of things.
