Then it looks like the answer is...

I agree that if these are going to be unsupported and otherwise dismissed on launchpad, there should be something stated on the Kubuntu page effectively saying (politely): "Don't bother reporting this bug on launchpad, because this is not supported."

I am now writing this in a much prettier Firefox with all KDE styles applied. Likewise, the GTK styles and fonts module is available via the System Settings.

Now to figure out how to get aptitude to obey my hold command on that package -- seems to want to ignore it. But that's a different issue.

I guess if PPA packages are not supported, this can get closed. I don't like that solution, but if thems the rules, then thems the rules.
