Honestly?

there are many better solutions to KOffice, and maintaining and ENTIRE
office suite is enough work on top of an entire Desktop Environment! I
think we are going to instead make patches for libreoffice
integration.

Another option may be Calligra in the future (current version of
koffice). they might be moving away from KDE4's kdelibs and going just
qt, which would open up that for us to use.
