now the dependency on this one means that all of your other 
much-less-controversial changes are gated on getting acceptance for making the 
search field visually unfocused by default.

  No. What you're saying makes a kind of sense until you actually think about 
it - while it's possible to change D17023 <https://phabricator.kde.org/D17023> 
to make it more discrete (it's a font size and label change, basically three 
lines of code), even that makes little sense in the face of a focused search 
field that would be present without all the other patches. It's not possible to 
make D17022 <https://phabricator.kde.org/D17022> or D17020 
<https://phabricator.kde.org/D17020> (//**re**//-enable hover) independent 
because they //quite literally// depend on an unfocused search field and are 
bug fixes for issues that this here diff introduces. So it makes //very little 
if any sense// to make them independent (the current Kickoff doesn't have these 
bugs).
  
  Suffice it to say, you can't use any of the other patches (except the font 
size / label change) without this one.
  
  P.S. If you want to reject the patch based on controversy, that's fine with 
me. I don't care much about the focus anyway tbh
