Speaking as somebody that is creating a Plasma based product
(https://kalpadesktop.org) it would be far more advantageous, and less overhead
for me as a developer, if KDE offered a solution similar to G-I-S, for this
purpose, as opposed to having to completely refactor into an entirely new
installer.
I've looked at Calamares, and I've even gotten some test builds working with
it, but at least for us, we would absolutely prefer to go with something that's
KDE integrated, whether as an extension to plasma-welcome or not.
Partially because our upstream *is* GNOME based (https://aeondesktop.org), and
leverages G-I-S for their setup, so the installer isn't offering this
functionality.
