As the KDE SIG, we don't feel strongly about it. We have always recommended 
installing from the KDE live image (which gets you a KDE-only system too), 
and IMHO that should still be the recommendation.

Personally, I think this way of presenting things is quite silly, but still, 
it is an improvement over previous UIs where you had no viable desktop 
selection at all. (You were able to check the desktops' groups, but all the 
application groups were defaulting to GNOME apps and GNOME was also checked 
by default.)
