Lighter in what sense? 

KDE 4 has a (meta-)package kde-plasma-netbook, which is at the 'same level' as kde-plasma-desktop, 
but then .... more suited to netbooks. Might be interesting in your case.
KDE 4/plasma was made with various form factors in mind (besides desktop), unlike KDE 3.x which only 
targetted desktops.
And probably also relevant in your use case, the 'infrastructure' (network-/power-management, etc) 
has changed/improved significantly from Lenny/KDE3 to Squeeze/KDE4.
And in case you didn't know, KDE 3 is dead. Meaning no new versions will come available, the 
applications are quite old and won't be updated, etc.

Unless there's a if/then construct for the kde-core package in the webbuilder, I don't see why 
changing the output type would solve anything. Or am I missing something?
