I retract my proposal and deleted the branch from stage. Since it was decided by KDE that the next generation of KDE libraries will make use of imported target names directly I think it doesn't make sense to add another "standard" variable nobody uses. IMO this also means that also in the future there will be no standard for the naming of the results of a find_package() call.
