It's probably just that I've been terribly out of the loop, but between Jonathan stating "There is no other major distro out there that matches that description..." and your "KDE had no real distro favorite", I have to ask: what happened to OpenSuse? I always thought that was the go-to distro if you wanted the latest and greatest of KDE?

Yeha, I always thought OpenSuse was considered the place to go for the best KDE.

And I would go there if I didn't prefer apt/deb so much over rpm. (Yes it's a personal irrational preference.)

Chakra Linux (Arch Linux - Fork) is a KDE *ONLY* distro, It'd be nice to see where that goes in the future.
