F8 -> F9 but keeping KDE3: technically feasible?

Hi all,

do you think it can be possible to upgrade a F8 to F9 with
exclusion of the KDE packages?

My idea would be to keep qt, qt4 and kde* packages from F8,
and upgrade all the rest.
Will I run into serious issues about collateral dependencies,
e.g. pulseaudio<->artsd, NM, misc dbus/hal things, etc...?

What is the best way to attempt such a thing?
Can I run anaconda in a "minimal" mode to upgrade
only the basic stuff and then proceed with yum?
Upgrade F8->F9 exclusively via yum?

Hints kindly accepted.
