At least for openSUSE we have this planned. By choosing either the "plasma5-
session" or the "kdebase4-session" packages, the user willl be able to install 
Plasma 5 or the 4.x workspace, making this switch easy enough (each switch 
willl remove / install the required packages).

There are also other alternatives that can leverage the pacakge manager's 
capabilities (patterns, etc).

Either way, packaging tools that allow this are available, and it's likely the 
same for other distros. I don't see this as a big issue as long as it's 
properly documented. It's *much, much better* than shipping stuff out of 
prefix.
