It is installed by CMake w/o any patches and is said to be provided in the 
release announcement, so i guess it is safe to say that it is installed by 
default.

If upstream would prefer the session is not provided, best is 1) don't install 
it at all via CMake, 2) notify kde-distro-packagers that the session should 
rather not be provided.
