Generally, latest releases of KDE can be installed on openSUSE pretty easily via the Open Build Service. I don't know what the state of that is currently - I'm not a KDE guy - but I'm pretty sure they'd be able to point you in the right direction on the mailing lists.

Enabling newly built OBS sources kind a defeats the purpose of having a well tested distribution. Besides it would not be fair to openSUSE since they fought so hard to do this release. GNOME just seem to be the better fit for having a well tested and yet new desktop.

Tumbleweed will soon come to your rescue on 12.2 too ;-)
