That's not the whole truth: I read regularly complaints about the 'semantic desktop' (file indexing) tools because developers didn't provide an easy way to disable them (I think that this has changed in the last release, not sure).
And to take one data point, Carla Schroeder switched for KDE4 to XFCE on January 2010, so much more recently than KDE4.0, she is just one user though so this doesn't mean much..

I've been using KDE4 since about 4.0 or 4.1 and haven't had any problems disabling the file indexing tools on any of the versions.
