I don't know whether this means the programmers did their job or
not, but when I fire up rosegarden on my machine, it launches
kdeinit, dcopserver, and all that other cruft if it's not
already running.
So even if you're running GNOME or IceWM or whatever, you are
also running KDE while you're running Rosegarden, just not the
desktop, panel, et al.
I personally have no problem with that, because (1) I run KDE
already and (2) Rosegarden has never been advertised as a
lightweight anything, but I see their point. I doubt other
full-featured sequencer apps are much lighter.
