I see this form the opposite direction: I would like to drop K3B for 
good for my personal use, as it is *the only* desktop application I have 
using *the other* toolkit (and it does not integrate well with the rest 
of the desktop, is very slow to start etc.). note: my main usage 
scenario in using K3B is to write multisession  disks, feature not 
available in nautilus-burn.

In some case the default choice in the Fedora desktop is the easiest to 
use and/or the most integrated solution, this is why Nautilus-burn is 
the recommended way to burn disks and on the same thinking, a gtk 
Bittorent client is preferred to Azureus (and I agree here, with a 
strong personal liking for Transmission and maybe Deluge).

Of course, the rule is not always true, as Firefox is preferred to 
Epiphany, and examples can continue on both sides.
