I think this can happen if and when, and only if and when, the real kde5
NWF using qt5 gets enabled, not the gtk3-based hack.
I'll use the kde4 NWF over the gtk3 or gtk3-kde5 one any day!
That follows what I think we found a bit of consensus on in the kde-sig
meeting today. Our current recommendation to libreoffice maintainer:
If you're open to incremental changes, please enable gtk3-kde5 now, and keep
-kde4 around for now.
Otherwise, when 6.2 lands with better/full Qt5 support,
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/6.2#KDE_5,
enable that, and drop/replace -kde4 (and gtk3-kde5) then.
