Mmm... what grade of stability do you expect for your system afterwards and how brave enough do you feel? :-) > Hence 2 questions: > > 1.

KDE SC is more stable as versions increase (BTW, 4.7 was released a day ago or so) but I would worry most for the additional libraries and packages you will have to download/upgrade from testing/sid repo than can mess up your system. > 2.

And that's another challenge (integrating both environments).... I would definitely try that experiment from a virtual machine or a separate testing machine but not definitely from your current stable system.
