See my comment on the original Max Spevack post that post references:
http://spevack.livejournal.com/67166.html?thread=196446#t196446
(in reply to a comment from an openSUSE guy) for the technical reasons of why
this works for openSUSE and not for us.
In addition, what Rex Dieter says about manpower is also true. (They have way
more people working on KDE than us.) Kubuntu has a KDE team more comparable in
size with ours and they say that "The development team decided that time and
manpower considerations as well as the probable(possible) lack of further 3.5x
releases prevent them from maintaining 2 separate versions, and KDE 4 was
chosen as the version to move forward with." (from
https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/KDE3-KDE4Migration ).
