There is gtk-qt-engine in Fedora Extras, but, unfortunately, it's a bit buggy wrt recent gtk2 releases.
Doesn't the gtk-qt engine create a GTK theme that uses a Qt theme ? With other words GNOME applications look like Qt applications. For a gnome desktop it would be better if there was a Qt theme engine that uses GTK to draw Qt/KDE applications.
Also since Qt is GPL, doesn't the gtk-qt-engine introduce some licensing problems, cause all GTK applications will than be "linked" with Qt, and so they all should be GPL (which isn't needed with GTK)
And things like cut and paste, URL default aps, etc. still will be different. The only two KDE apps i use are kdevelop and k3d and I hate the small differences, I would not suggest mixing KDE and GNOME, they are just to different.
