This is irrelevant. Plasma 4 applications are still KDE applications.
Migration is not a one-time flag day event.

Upstream explicitly decided against that with version 5. This is one of the
reasons why KF5, Plasma 5 and KDE Applications 15.mm are now separate
projects, and the reason why KDE Applications uses a yy.mm versioning
instead of 4.x or 5.x (to allow shipping applications of both types
together).
In addition, even for the KDE 4 transition, which was supposed to be
coordinated the way you ask for, Fedora 9 included a kdelibs3 kdepim
(because 4.0 shipped without kdepim), and all the non-SC (now non-"KDE
Applications") kdelibs applications (Amarok, Krusader, etc.) were also still
kdelibs3. It took until F12 for us to be able to ship a spin without
kdelibs3 on it.

And do you remember all the complaints that materialized due to that.
