KOffice is also being ported. Why? Because they can. In order for normal users to use such applications there have to be major changes made to the UI, I don't believe anyone denies that. But the feature is something people do want (at least read support) say because they'd like to read an e-mail with said attachment, or work on making one (requires write support).
