In fact, testing KDE 4.5.1 with F13+updates, I noticed the following 2
issues. The 2nd is related to the OP's question - i.e. I'm no hijacker ;)

1) A "groupupdate" via kde+kde-testing produced a conflict with the NM
plasmoid from 4.4.5: the network icon conflicts with the one from a 4.5
base package (kdebase-runtime). Even now, trying to install
kde-plasma-networkmanagement from kde-testing gives the same error:

Transaction Check Error:
  file /usr/share/kde4/apps/desktoptheme/default/icons/network.svgz from
install of kde-plasma-networkmanagement-1:0.9-0.20.20100603.fc13.x86_64
conflicts with file from package kdebase-runtime-4.5.1-0.1.fc13.x86_64

2) A "update" via kde+kde-testing produced conflicts because digikam and
kphotoalbum depend on (a specific .so from) kdeedu-marble-libs from
4.4.5 which either the 4.5 does not provide, or does not say it
provides. After removing digikam and kphotoalbum I was able to update
kdeedu* to 4.5.1.

So I guess there are some provides/requires issues.

Other than that (and the known missing network names), everything seems
to look fine so far, just like we've become accustomed to with Fedora
KDE, the prime Fedora Desktop spin :)
