Mostly it would keep Debian and Kubuntu happier who aren't great fans of PackageKit. Using appstream seems sensible, how do I use it to find the name of e.g. the samba package? The other half of the project would be to implement this in the various places that KDE software needs it which nobody seems to have done yet.
