Ah! Sorry had been trying to search it on packages.debian.org but it
seemed to keep giving errors, probably due to the packages being on
experimental at the time. And didn't remember to “dpkg -S” for it on
the machine where I upgraded the whole desktop.

So, kdebase-workspace-bin dependencies are quite heavy, would you be
amenable to moving it back to kdebase-workspace or maybe moving the
engines to another separate package or similar, for installations that
don't need/want the whole desktop?

Ok, yes that makes more sense than my attempt to a guess. :)
