Well, as one of the Rosegarden developers mentioned after they moved RG
to pure QT: some features that they got for free from KDE are no longer
available. IOW, you have to roll your own to replace some of those features.
I don't remember what they were off the top of my head, but I think (in
at least one case) it was a feature that was more then a mere "bit of
convenience and consistency for KDE users".

I've seen the video and like it (and the music). I also read kdenlive
rather often recently. I'm under the impression that a lot of recent
development is focused on it, at least the MLT people seem to focus on
this particular GUI. But I really dislike DEs and find it a pity when
very useful software gets integrated into a DE for little tangible
benefit. I should really take the time sometime and see what benefits
desktop integration brings and compare the work involved between a DE
integrated and a version that uses just a toolkit (KDE vs. Qt for
example). My guess at this time is that KDE integration offers a little
bit of convenience and consistency for KDE users, nothing more. ... Today I've seen that in the area of video
GUI solutions aren't working that well ...
Sebkha-Chott seem to do all right
with what's available :

(According to LAU member Aurelien that video was produced with Kdenlive).
I guess it all depends on what you want to achieve.
