Indeed. And I added further detail to the Change document about why we're doing it now instead of later[1]. To summarize: there's no such thing as a "good" time to do it, and the SIG feels that doing it at the Plasma 6.0 major version upgrade allows us to reset expectations, as users are used to major versions being significantly different than their predecessors. Otherwise, we have to do it sometime later in the middle of the Plasma 6.x lifetime, which was much less appealing. The discussion on this thread has been mostly quite helpful, and has allowed me to provide feedback to KDE developers on prioritizing things for Plasma 6 development[2].
